PrEP Use Among Black Transgender Women: A Qualitative Study on Barriers to PrEP Use and the Power and Promise of Community.
Article in Archives of sexual behavior, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
Black transgender women (TW) have disproportionately low uptake and use of HIV pre-exposure prophylaxis (PrEP), despite high vulnerability to HIV. Community and peer support may be important intervention targets to improve PrEP use among Black TW. We conducted qualitative interviews with 42 Black TW in the midwestern United States to understand Black TW's experiences with PrEP and explore barriers to PrEP use and the ways peers and Black trans communities may support PrEP use. Using inductive thematic analysis, we identified three primary themes. First, many Black TW see themselves as PrEP advocates and look out for other Black TW. Second, participants described a desire to support the broader Black trans community thrive. Finally, participants described the importance of supporting Black TW involved in sex work, including by supporting the use of PrEP. Data from this study show that, despite numerous health care and structural-level barriers, Black TW play a vital role in supporting PrEP use among other Black TW and supporting their communities. Our results highlight the promise of community-driven interventions among Black TW in supporting PrEP use.
