Development of a pharmacy-based HIV PrEP service delivery intervention for Washington, District of Columbia (DC): A study protocol.
Article in PloS one, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 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
Pharmacy-based PrEP service delivery models can help address many of the barriers that inhibit the uptake of PrEP. In an increasing number of states, legislation has been passed, or is under consideration, to allow pharmacists to initiate PrEP without a prescription from a physician or other prescriber. However, there is not yet legislation in Washington, DC to allow pharmacy-based PrEP despite its potential to curb new cases of HIV, which disproportionately affect the Black community in the area. The DC Ends HIV Plan has a goal of less than 130 new cases of HIV per year by 2030, which would require that over 13,000 high-risk residents use PrEP. However, in 2021 only 6,724 Washingtonians were taking PrEP. This study seeks to address the absence of critical formative research into the factors that would influence the implementation of pharmacy-based PrEP in Washington DC using the Implementation Mapping (IM) framework. A needs assessment will be conducted through in-depth interviews (IDIs) with pharmacists (n = 6), PrEP providers (n = 6), current PrEP users (n = 6), DC Department of Health officials (n = 2), DC Board of Pharmacy officials (n = 4) and pharmacy-based PrEP experts (n = 4) to provide input on the operational aspects of pharmacy-based PrEP model as a strategy to increase PrEP uptake. Information gathered through this needs assessment will be used to develop standard operating procedures for the introduction of pilot pharmacy-based PrEP into community-based retail pharmacies.
