HIV and Viremia Prevalence in Nonmigrating Members of Migrant Households in Southern Uganda: A Cross-Sectional Population-Based Study.

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
introductionIn Africa, migrants are more likely to be living with HIV and HIV viremic than nonmigrants, but less is known about HIV outcomes among nonmigrants living in households with migrants. We compared HIV outcomes in nonmigrating persons in households with and without migration.
methodsWe analyzed cross-sectional data collected between August 2016 and May 2018 from nonmigrating participants aged 15-49 years in the Rakai Community Cohort Study in Uganda. Migrant households were classified as those reporting ≥1 member moving into or out of the household since the prior survey. HIV serostatus was determined using a validated testing algorithm, and viremia defined as >1000 copies/mL. Modified Poisson regression was used to estimate prevalence ratios between household migration and HIV outcomes. Analyses were stratified by gender, direction of migration (into/out of household), and relationship between nonmigrants and migrants (eg, spouse).
resultsThere were 14,599 nonmigrants (52% women) and 4415 (30%) lived in a household with ≥1 migrant. Of these, 972 (22%) had migrant spouses, 1102 (25%) migrant children, and 875 (20%) migrant siblings. Overall, HIV prevalence and viremia did not differ between nonmigrants in households with and without migration. However, in stratified analyses, nonmigrant women with migrant spouses were significantly more likely to be HIV seropositive compared with nonmigrant women with nonmigrant spouses [adjusted prevalence ratio: 1.44, 95% confidence interval: 1.21 to 1.71]. Conversely, nonmigrant mothers living with HIV who had migrant children were less likely to be viremic (adjusted prevalence ratio: 0.34, 95% confidence interval: 0.13 to 0.86).
conclusionsNonmigrating women with migrating spouses are more likely be living with HIV, and may benefit from additional HIV support services.
