Identifying Effective Strategies for Improving Engagement in HIV Prevention and Care Among Transgender Persons in the United States: A Systematic Review.
Synthesis in AIDS and behavior, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 papers.
What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
This systematic review synthesized published literature (2000 - 2023) to identify HIV interventions specifically designed for transgender persons in the United States (PROSPERO registration number: CRD42021256460). The review also summarized strategies for improving outcomes related to the four pillars of the Ending the HIV Epidemic (EHE) initiative in the United States: Diagnose, Treat, Prevent, and Respond. A comprehensive search was conducted using the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention's HIV Prevention Research Synthesis Project database, which included over 120,000 citations from routine systematic searches in CINAHL, EMBASE, Global Health, MEDLINE, PsycInfo, and Sociological Abstracts. Of 23 interventions that met inclusion criteria, 94% focused on transgender women of color and 22% focused on young transgender persons aged 15-29 years old. Most interventions focused on Treat or Prevent, few focused on Diagnosis, and none focused on Respond. Twenty interventions (87%) showed improvement in at least one EHE related outcome and a quarter of these effective interventions were tested with randomized controlled trials. Common strategies observed in effective interventions include the following: engaging the community in intervention development; pilot-testing with the focus population to ensure appropriateness and acceptability; addressing social determinants of health (e.g. stigma, discrimination, violence) through empowerment and gender-affirming approaches; increasing access to care, prevention, and services through co-location and one-stop shop models; and utilizing peer-led counseling, education, support, and navigation. Continuous effort is needed in addressing gaps, including more research for transgender men and rural settings and for how best to adopt and adapt best practices for subgroups of transgender population.
