1 · What the graph read from it

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.

2 · The registry

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 objective of the present paper is to apply an intersectional lens to HIV prevention behavior disparities among LGBTQ+ adolescents across multiple social positions (racial, ethnic, gender, and sexual identities) and access to LGBTQ+-inclusive school resources (sex education and gender-sexuality alliances). Data are from the 2022 LGBTQ National Teen Survey (N = 10,871). Descriptive analyses and chi-square tests were conducted for social position, LGBTQ+-inclusive school resources, and HIV prevention variables. Social positions and two LGBTQ+-inclusive school resources were then entered into exhaustive chi-square automatic interaction detection models of HIV prevention behaviors (heard of/taken pre-exposure prophylaxis, HIV-testing, and consistent condom use). Groups with the highest and lowest prevalence of HIV prevention behaviors are described. LGBTQ+-inclusive school resources, especially sex education, were promotive of HIV prevention behaviors and mitigated some disparities across social positions. However, some disparities by social positions persisted. Gay or queer cisgender boys were consistently in the highest prevalence HIV prevention behavior groups, whereas youth who self-reported they were bisexual/pansexual, asexual, sexual identity questioning, straight or a sexual identity not listed, especially those who lacked LGBTQ+-inclusive school resources, were overrepresented in the low prevalence groups. LGBTQ+-inclusive school resources are important sources of HIV prevention information and may mitigate some HIV-related disparities.
