A Volunteer-Based Social Network Strategy to Promote HIV Testing Among MSM Aged 50 and Above - Tianjin Municipality, China, 2021-2024.
Article in China CDC weekly, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
What is already known about this topic?: HIV prevalence among men who have sex with men (MSM) aged 50 and above has been increasing. This population has a low testing rate and insufficient knowledge of human immunodeficiency virus/acquired immune deficiency syndrome (HIV/AIDS) prevention. At present, limited strategies are available for improving the testing coverage among elderly MSM. What is added by this report?: By comparing with the traditional testing strategy, our study found that Volunteer-Based Social Network HIV Testing Services (VBSNS) could significantly improve the testing coverage and newly reported HIV-positive cases of elderly MSM in the remote suburbs of Tianjin Municipality. What are the implications for public health practice?: Our study confirmed the feasibility of VBSNS among the elderly MSM population in suburban areas and provides a reference model for improving testing coverage in remote areas.
