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

Older Black women (OBW) aged 50 years and older are disproportionately affected by HIV, a condition that remains highly stigmatized. This qualitative descriptive study uses secondary data of previously collected data to explore the effects of HIV-related stigma on a sample of 19 OBW living with HIV. Convenience sampling was used to recruit participants in Florida, USA. In-depth interviews were conducted. Through conventional content analysis, seven themes were constructed: (a) the need for HIV to be a secret, (b) concerns about discrimination, (c) anticipated stigma, (d) behavioral responses to anticipated stigma, (e) ignorance and fear as sources of stigma, (f) emotional responses to experienced stigma, and (g) suggestions for future interventions. HIV-related stigma continues to be a major obstacle that OBW living with HIV must confront. The study's findings can inform clinical practice and health professional education and encourage greater use of mental health resources among OBW living with HIV.
