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

In 2024, we conducted a study to evaluate the effectiveness of a Mongolian non-governmental organization (NGO) stigma reduction program, "We are Living Under the Same Sky" (LUSS), by assessing the association between the program and two human immunodeficiency virus prevention outcomes, recognition of the Undetectable = Untransmittable (U=U) and the need for pre-exposure prophylaxis (PrEP), in 223 men who have sex with men (MSM). Results showed that the LUSS program was associated with the recognition of U=U and PrEP need by Mongolian MSM. The recognition of U=U was associated with coming-out experience and marital status. LUSS was associated with the PrEP need, which, in turn, was associated with MSM who engaged in active sexual behaviors. The LUSS program has increased the recognition of U=U and PrEP need among MSM, and it can be incorporated into new prevention interventions targeting MSM. LUSS has the potential to effectively raise awareness among MSM and other populations such as youth, educators, and healthcare providers.
