Sexual HIV transmission risk behaviors associated with stimulant drug injection among people who non-medically use gabapentin and opioids.

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
Background: Recent research shows that co-use of stimulants and opioids appears to be increasing and injection of opioids and stimulants carries risk for HIV transmission. This study examined stimulant injection and sexual HIV risk behaviors among individuals who reported nonmedical use of gabapentin and opioids (n=62). Methods: Data were analyzed comparing people who injected stimulants to those who do not were conducted using chi-square and Results: Compared to those who did not, people who injected stimulants, were less likely to be African American/Black ( Conclusions: Given the documented association between the use of opioids and nonmedical use of gabapentin and the growing trend of opioid-stimulant co-use use, future research must examine whether nonmedical use of gabapentin is an indicator of substance use disorder severity and/or a risk factor for injection drug use. Education and intervention opportunities which address group sex and other sexual risk behaviors are warranted.
