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: Describe sexual history completion among U.S. Veterans with a sexually transmitted infection (STI) and its association with number of ordered STI laboratory tests and offer of human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) pre-exposure prophylaxis (PrEP). Methods: We assembled a retrospective cohort of Veterans with a STI seen at five sites in the southern United States and excluded those with diagnosis of HIV. We conducted a systematic chart review of sexual history using Centers for Disease Control and Prevention's five 'Ps.' The outcome was STI testing and PrEP offer. Charts were reviewed between December 2021 and May 2022. Results: No sexual history was documented in 43 % of the 278 encounters with differences across sites ( Conclusions: Low sexual history documentation were associated with less STI tests ordered. PrEP referrals were low. Improvements in sexual history taking and PrEP offerings are essential.
