Using epidemiological data to explore the impact of mental health and substance use disorder treatment facilities and family planning clinic availability on pre-exposure prophylaxis use for women in the U.S.
Article in AIDS care, 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
Ending the HIV epidemic by 2030 is partly dependent on preexposure prophylaxis (PrEP), but usage has been markedly low among women. This study sought to determine if access to mental health and substance use disorder treatment, and family planning clinics have an impact on women's PrEP uptake. Using epidemiological data from publicly available data sources, we employed a difference-in-differences design to quantify the effect of the availability of these facilities on PrEP rate and PrEP-to-need ratio across all 50 states. We found that mental health and substance use disorder treatment had a small effect on PrEP rate for males 0.9% (0.888), but there was no effect on female PrEP outcomes. The availability of family planning clinics was found to be associated with an 8.1% (-0.664) decrease in PrEP rate among females. We concluded that PrEP is not being adequately implemented in mental health and substance use disorder treatment, and family planning clinics, suggesting missed opportunities. These facilities are excellent venues for promoting PrEP adoption as they already reach women susceptible to HIV. The focus should be on embedding PrEP-related care into existing standards of care in these settings to increase PrEP uptake among women who would benefit from PrEP.
