A Mixed Method Survey of Characteristics of HIV Care Facilities: Medical Monitoring Project Facility Survey Project.
Article in JMIR formative research, 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
backgroundMeasuring the capacity of HIV medical facilities to deliver quality treatment and prevention care to people with HIV is essential to the over 1 million Americans living with HIV and supports federal efforts to end the HIV epidemic. To fill this gap and complement the ongoing Medical Monitoring Project-which conducts annual surveys of people with HIV and periodic surveys of HIV care providers-the US Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) and RTI (Research Triangle Institute) International conducted the Medical Monitoring Project Facility Survey (MMPFS).
objectiveWe aimed to describe the survey methods designed to achieve a high response rate from the 1022 facilities providing care to people with HIV as part of the Medical Monitoring Project-including frame development, survey instrument development, facility recruitment, and postsurvey data processing.
methodsFor the MMPFS, the CDC and RTI developed a sequential multimode data collection approach (paper, web, and phone), including an abbreviated nonresponse follow-up (NRFU) instrument and the collection of administrative data for all facilities. Data were then processed to produce raw, imputed, and weighted datasets. Analyses included comparisons of responses to the full survey and NRFU survey.
resultsThe full MMPFS survey yielded 455 complete survey respondents and the NRFU survey yielded 59 complete survey responses, a combined response rate of 50.3% (514/1022). A nonresponse bias analysis comparing the 2 surveys found a significant difference in the raw datasets for 4 (12%) of the 34 categorical variables that were identical between the 2 surveys (all P>.0014). Weighted and imputed datasets were then generated and compared. There was no significant difference between the 2 datasets for any variable (all P>.05).
conclusionsThe CDC and RTI's MMPFS methodology proved to be a valuable means of collecting data from HIV care providers and providing estimates for facility characteristics related to the provision of health care for people with HIV. The combined response rate allowed the CDC and RTI to generate facility-level estimates and an imputed dataset that can be linked to MMPFS patient data. The methods may be applied to other facility survey studies.
