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

The high HIV prevalence among men who have sex with men and transgender women (TW) in Peru calls for innovative HIV prevention strategies to modify social norms, increase social support and promote empowerment and community mobilization. This qualitative article presents the synergistic processes that generated community mobilization throughout Generación Actual (GA, Current Generation in English), an HIV prevention intervention with gay men (GM) and TW in Lima South based on Mpowerment, a U.S.-model intervention program. We conducted 24 interviews with GM and TW participants, informed by observations of GA and the perceptions of its implementing coordinators, and complemented by the number/types of GA activities. Four significant processes occurred throughout GA: (1) high participant engagement, community building and empowerment; (2) an effect on HIV prevention and treatment; (3) the integration of GM and TW and (4) GA's community center becoming a safe space for socializing, support and information. These processes helped produce positive changes related to self-empowerment, personal agency and the participants' health, suggesting an impact of GA on HIV prevention, stigma reduction and care engagement. Community mobilization strategies that ensure active community participation and involvement may constitute relevant aspects for an effective approach to HIV prevention for TW and GM in Peru.
