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
Objectives: This study aimed to explore the psychosocial phenotype and its association with risky sexual behavior to deepen the understanding of the mechanisms of risky sexual behavior (RSB) among people living with HIV. Methods: Data were collected between October and December 2021 in a cross-sectional study. Participants were 727 people living with HIV from an HIV clinic in a comprehensive hospital and completed a battery of questionnaires. A latent profile approach was utilized to identify the psychosocial phenotype based on depression, stigma, and social support. Multinomial logistic regression was used to investigate the relationship between sexual behaviors and the psychosocial phenotype. Results: Three distinct phenotypes were identified: a low-risk profile (52.68%), a middle-risk profile (37.96%), and a high-risk profile (9.35%). These profiles exhibited a gradually increasing level of depression and stigma but a decreased level of social support. Participants in the middle-risk profile were twice as likely to engage in risky sexual behavior than those in low-risk profile (OR = 1.924, Conclusions: This study implies the synergistic impact of depression, stigma, and social support on the occurrence of risky sexual behavior among people living with HIV, which may be useful to the early intervention of risky sexual behavior.
