The social, cultural, and health context of controlling behavior and emotional intimate partner violence among adolescent girls and young women living with human immunodeficiency virus in Uganda: A qualitative 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
backgroundMany adolescent girls and young women (AGYW) living with human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) report intimate partner violence (IPV), including emotional IPV and controlling behavior. Yet, few studies have examined the association between these forms of IPV and health outcomes among AGYW living with HIV.
objectivesWe conducted an exploratory qualitative study to understand the contexts in which controlling behavior and emotional IPV might impact the health of AGYW living with HIV in Uganda.
designWe used a participatory action research design involving community stakeholders (health workers, program managers of non-governmental organizations serving IPV survivors, and AGYW living with HIV).
methodsData were collected through in-depth interviews and focus groups. We analyzed data using an inductive thematic analysis approach.
resultsThe following four themes related to different dimensions of controlling behavior and emotional IPV among AGYW living with HIV emerged from the data: (1) age-related controlling behavior and emotional IPV; (2) HIV-related controlling behavior and emotional IPV; (3) isolation-type controlling behavior and poor HIV health; (4) financial control and poor HIV health. Embedded throughout the four themes were issues related to male partners' misuse of power.
conclusionAGYW living with HIV experience unique forms of emotional IPV and controlling behavior that impede their ability to remain healthy. Inequitable gender norms may further increase the risk of emotional IPV and controlling behavior among AGYW living with HIV. Couples-based interventions that build healthy relationship skills and offer social support may help to reduce these forms of IPV.
