HIV Testing and PrEP Use Among Trans and/or Non-binary Participants in the TASG Study, a Participatory Study in Germany.

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
HIV testing and pre-exposure prophylaxis (PrEP) are recommended in Germany for individuals at increased HIV risk. However, data on HIV testing, PrEP use, and PrEP knowledge among trans and non-binary people are limited. We analysed data from the 'Sexuelle Gesundheit in trans und nicht-binären Communitys' (TASG) study, a participatory study on HIV/STI and sexual health among trans and non-binary people in Germany. The study was designed, promoted, and analysed with active involvement of community members. Participants were invited to complete an anonymous online survey between 1 March and 1 July 2022. The outcomes included HIV testing within the last 5 years, PrEP use, and PrEP-specific knowledge. Predictors for HIV testing were identified using a bootstrap stepwise selection procedure. Among 2468 HIV-negative participants with information on potential HIV risks, 21.5% had potential needs for HIV testing and PrEP. Of these, only 44.3% (208/470, missing: 60) reported testing for HIV within the last 5 years. Older participants, those living in larger cities, and those with higher education levels were more likely to have tested for HIV. Additionally, only 8.3% (38/459, missing: 71) reported ever using PrEP. Among 451 participants with potential PrEP needs (missing: 79), only 57.4% knew at least one of three key PrEP-related facts at the time of the survey. Our findings highlight substantial gaps in HIV testing and prevention among trans and non-binary individuals in Germany with potential needs for these services. Reducing barriers to testing and prevention is essential to enable broader access to these critical services.
