1 · What the graph read from it

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.

2 · The registry

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

We analysed the socioeconomic, behavioural, and protection factors (PFs) influences on the HIV combined prevention (CP) strategy among Brazilian Amazonian men who have sex with men (MSMs). PFs are resources that reduce the effect of adversity and help people maintain their well-being.

methodsCross-sectional study employing a convenient sample of MSMs living in the metropolitan region of Belém. A questionnaire containing socioeconomic, behavioural, PFs, and behaviour/knowledge concerning CP questions was used. "Behaviour/knowledge concerning CP" was defined as a dependent variable and received a maximum score of 16 points. The Mann-Whitney and Kruskal-Wallis tests and multiple linear regression were employed.

resultsOur sample comprised 384 MSMs scoring an average of 7.83 points (±1.9). Contributing to lower scores were "not talking about sex life with confidants", "not talking with work colleagues about personal life and sexually transmissible infections", and "not participating in non-governmental organisations." On the other hand, "not being happy in the neighbourhood of residency" contributed to higher scores.

conclusionPeer support and social inclusion are essential for increasing MSMs' access to CP.
