Electronic Dose Monitoring Feedback (EMF) with Youth Living with HIV: Qualitative Exploration of Reactions to Viewing Dosing Calendars.
Article in AIDS and 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
Electronic dose monitoring with feedback (EMF) offers an opportunity to visualize daily dosing behaviors that can otherwise be difficult to appreciate. Visual displays, including early, on-time, late, or missed doses over time, can foster insights around patterns of dosing. Reactions to seeing these patterns among youth with HIV (YWH) who struggle with adherence are important to consider with EMF. YWH (ages 14-25) participating in the ATN152 TERA intervention were presented withsmart-bottle-generated 1-month EMF calendars as part of their sessions with a remote 'coach'. To characterize how youth reacted to these visualizations, transcripts from this portion of the coaching sessions were thematically analyzed. A total of 64 youth-coach discussions were characterized across 37 unique participants (22 years old on average, 81% Black/African American, 46% acquired HIV vertically). Six main reactions to EMF calendars were identified: feelings of pride/satisfaction, empowerment/motivation, positive surprise, negative surprise, shame/guilt, and/or neutral reactions. Although most reactions were positive, those with negative reactions tended to be in response to calendars showing low adherence. Over a quarter (28%) of youth ranked the EMF as one of the most beneficial/helpful aspects of the intervention when asked about experiences with intervention tools within the coaching session. A calendar EMF appeared to offer unique opportunities to explore adherence in the context of a supportive counseling session.
