Article in medRxiv : the preprint server for health sciences, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
Objective: Our study aimed to determine the prevalence and correlates of sexually transmitted infections (STIs) among adolescent girls and young women (AGYW) employed as household domestic workers in Kampala, Uganda. Methods: Ugandan AGYW aged 14-24 participated in a community-based cross-sectional study in the Kampala Metropolitan Area from November 2023 to March 2024. Self-collected vaginal swabs were tested for Results: Of 262 AGYW enrolled, the median age was 20 years (IQR 18-23), and 87 (33%) had an STI: Conclusion: The high prevalence of undiagnosed STIs and unsuppressed HIV among AGYW domestic workers in Kampala highlights the urgent need to increase HIV/STI prevention, testing and treatment coverage for these underserved and vulnerable young women. Targeted interventions are needed to mitigate STI/HIV acquisition in this population.
