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 investigate the HIV vulnerability and PrEP awareness among AGYW in Cameroon. Methods: This was a cross-sectional survey in which 637 AGYW were recruited. We conducted descriptive and logistic regression models to identify the factors associated with HIV vulnerability and PrEP awareness. Results: Among the 637 AGYW, 219 (34.4%) have shown vulnerability to HIV, which was significantly associated with their sexual orientation, education, and occupation. In addition, 519 (81%) AGYW reported no prior knowledge of PrEP, and among the 118 (19%) AGYW who were aware of PrEP, none had used it before. AGYW's awareness of PrEP was significantly associated with a positive STI diagnosis and a higher education level. Conclusions: This study highlights the elevated HIV vulnerability among AGYW in Cameroon, along with low PrEP awareness, particularly among those with lower education levels and those who have not undergone HIV testing. These findings underscore the necessity of developing targeted interventions to mitigate these risks for AGYW in Cameroon.
