1 · What the graph read from it

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.

2 · The registry

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

backgroundAlthough people with HIV have a markedly higher risk of anal squamous cell carcinoma (ASCC), there are few evaluations of anal Pap screening determinants within safety-net HIV clinics.

methodWe conducted an evaluation of anal Pap screening correlates within a safety-net HIV clinic in Miami. Medical records were reviewed for 298 people ages 45 and older receiving HIV primary care. Demographic information and the prevalence of anal Pap screening over 1 year (i.e., 2018-2019) were extracted.

resultsBetween 2018 and 2019, approximately half (46%) of patients completed anal Pap screening although this varied by sex assigned at birth. More than three-fourths of females (77%) compared to one-fourth (23%) of males were screened between 2018 and 2019 (p < 0.0001).

conclusionFindings underscore the need for multi-level intervention approaches to optimize anal Pap screening among males with HIV within the Miami-based safety-net clinic.
