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
The aim of this study was to analyze the predisposition and factors associated with the use of Post-Exposure Prophylaxis (PEP) for HIV in men who have sex with men (MSM).

A questionnaire consisting of 37 previously validated questions and a risk perception scale for HIV with eight questions were used. To explain which factors would be associated with predisposition to the use of PEP, a logistic regression analysis was applied with an odds ratio. The criterion for including variables in the logistic model was an association at the 20% level (
