Intersectional impact of cash transfers on AIDS among 12.3 million Brazilian women.
Article in Nature human behaviour, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 papers.
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
Multiple socioeconomic vulnerabilities are associated with an increased burden of human immunodeficiency virus and its progression to acquired immunodeficiency syndrome (AIDS). Here, using a quasi-experimental impact evaluation design and a cohort of 12.3 million low-income Brazilian women (daughters and mothers) from 2007 to 2015, we evaluated the impact and intersectional effectiveness of the world's largest conditional cash transfer, the Programa Bolsa Família (PBF) on AIDS incidence and AIDS-related mortality. Among daughters, PBF was associated with reductions in AIDS incidence (rate ratio (RR) 0.53, 95% confidence interval (CI) 0.42-0.66) and AIDS-related mortality (RR 0.45, 95% CI 0.27-0.74). Among mothers, PBF was associated with reductions in AIDS incidence (RR 0.58, 95% CI 0.55-0.61) and AIDS-related mortality (RR 0.57, 95% CI 0.53-0.63). The effects of PBF were stronger among mothers with 1 vulnerability, and even higher with 2 intersecting vulnerabilities, specifically for AIDS incidence among brown/Black and extremely low income (RR 0.47, 95% CI 0.44-0.49). The greatest effect was observed in extremely low-income, brown/Black mothers with higher education (RR 0.44, 95% CI 0.38-0.53). Conditional cash transfer could substantially contribute towards reducing AIDS-related inequalities and achieving the AIDS-related Sustainable Development Goal.
