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
Death by suicide is common among people living with HIV (PLWH) in Tanzania, and is strongly influenced by HIV stigma, lack of social support, and HIV-associated stress. Screening and intervention strategies for reducing suicidality, however, are not incorporated into standard HIV care. This study describes the development of a brief, nurse-led telehealth counseling intervention to address suicidal IDeation through HIV Education and counseling, advancing treatment Adherence, and reducing Stigma for renewed Hope (IDEAS for Hope) among PLWH in Tanzania. The three intervention sessions are based on Four Pillars, supported by personal values, to motivate change and build hope for the future: 1) Living healthy with HIV; 2) Managing HIV stigma; 3) Seeking social support; and 4) Active problem-solving to address social determinants of health. The IDEAS for Hope intervention integrates universal suicide screening into routine HIV care; PLWH with recent suicidal ideation are connected by video call to the first IDEAS for Hope session, with two additional sessions offered at two-week intervals. The intervention model is informed by Motivational Interviewing-enhanced safety planning (MI-SafeCope), cognitive-behavioral therapy, and problem-solving therapy frameworks, which are combined to facilitate HIV care engagement, address key contributors to suicidality among PLWH, and build hope for the future.
