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
Risky sexual behaviors, such as the nonuse of condoms, are identified in the literature as a possible outcome of excessive alcohol use. However, studies on this topic are focused on the high-risk population, namely young adults, men who have sex with men, and sex workers, which limits the analysis of life stages in this association. Thus, this study aimed to verify, for the first time, the association between heavy drinking, at global-level, and inconsistent condom use among unmarried, not cohabiting Brazilians aged 18 to 59 years in various phases of adulthood. Data were obtained from the 2019 Brazilian National Health Survey (N = 15,835). Adjusted prevalence ratios and confidence intervals were estimated using Poisson regression models stratified by sex. Heavy drinkers, unmarried, not cohabiting adults were significantly more likely to report inconsistent condom use when compared with non-heavy drinkers for all age groups and both sexes. However, significant differences were not found for this association between the phases of adulthood.
