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
Background: Globally, female sex workers (FSWs) face high risk of HIV, particularly in regions like sub-Saharan Africa. In Ethiopia and Addis Ababa, the impact is significant. Implementing WHO-recommended measures, such as pre-exposure prophylaxis (PrEP), is crucial to reducing new HIV infections and addressing service access disparities among FSWs. Thus this study aimed to assess the acceptance of Pre-Exposure Prophylaxis (PrEP) among commercial female sex workers in selected sub-cities of Addis Ababa, Ethiopia, 2022. Method: Institution-based cross-sectional study design was conducted on three randomly selected sub-cities of Addis Ababa from June 20 to July 30, 2022. All (358) commercial sex workers available during the study period were included. A structured, pretested, and interviewer-administered questionnaire was used to collect the data. Logistic regression was used to identify factors associated with acceptance of pre-exposure prophylaxis and statistical significance was determined at Result: A total of 358 female sex workers responded, 67.9% (95% CI: 63.7, 73.2%) were willing to take pre-exposure prophylaxis. Acceptability of pre-exposure prophylaxis was significantly associated with the accessibility of pre-exposure prophylaxis at easily reachable areas (AOR3.786; 95%CI: 1.449, 9.894) and knowledge about pre-exposure prophylaxis (AOR 3.270; 95%CI: 1.336, 8.001). Conclusion: Acceptability of pre-exposure prophylaxis among female sex workers was 67.9% which is low. Accessibility of pre-exposure prophylaxis is an easily reachable area and knowledge of about it could significantly affect its acceptability.
