A Longitudinal Analysis of PrEP Eligibility in Women With a History of Injection Drug Use.
Article in Journal of addiction medicine, 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
objectivesPre-exposure prophylaxis (PrEP) is a critical strategy for HIV prevention in women who inject drugs (WWID); however, only 1%-2% of WWID use PrEP. We aim to characterize factors associated with longitudinal PrEP eligibility in women with a history of injection drug use to inform optimization of PrEP implementation strategies.
methodsWomen who did not have HIV and were participating in the AIDS Linked to the Intravenous Experience (ALIVE) Cohort between 2014 and 2020 were included. Data on sociodemographic characteristics, substance use, depressive symptoms, and HIV risk behaviors were collected at semiannual visits. PrEP-eligibility was defined as sex-related (>1 partner with condomless sex, partner with HIV or who injects drugs, transactional sex or sexually transmitted infection) or injection-related (sharing drug use equipment) in the past 6 months. Associations between individual factors and PrEP eligibility were estimated using unadjusted and adjusted logistic regression with generalized estimating equations.
resultsAmong 382 women, the average follow-up was 3.2 years, and 41% were PrEP-eligible. At baseline, among PrEP-eligible women, 89% met sex-related, 41% met injection-related, and 30% met both sex-related and injection-related criteria; women were eligible for PrEP during 58% of follow-up. Periods of PrEP-eligibility were longitudinally associated with younger age [adjusted odds ratio (95% CI): 0.92 (0.90-0.94)], recent incarceration [aOR=2.29 (1.17-4.50)], severe depression [aOR=1.31 (1.06-1.62)], and recent overdose [aOR=1.56 (1.07-2.28)].
conclusionsPrEP implementation efforts that incorporate strategies to support the needs of women with recent incarceration, severe depression, and recent overdose have the potential to maximize outcomes for WWID.
