A roadmap to scale up person-centred care in the HIV response: recommendations from a global consensus-building process.

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
introductionWorld Health Organization global normative guidance recommends person-centred care (PCC) approaches to reduce HIV-related mortality and morbidity and to improve health-related quality of life (HrQoL). However, consensus on the priority PCC elements and guidance on how different stakeholders can realize PCC principles at the health systems, service delivery and individual client-healthcare worker (HCW) levels are lacking. We conducted a global consensus-building process to define core PCC elements and develop recommendations for implementation at scale.
methodsWe used a multi-phase process to build consensus and prioritize recommendations, consisting of a literature review, five stakeholder consultations (34-43 participants each) between July 2022 and July 2023 and a three-round Delphi survey from March to July 2024 (49 participants). We sought diverse actors (including clients, HCWs, policymakers and researchers) from all world regions. Initial statements were drafted during the final consultation meeting, and adjustments to statements and recommendations were made during the Delphi survey.
resultsAll statements achieved over 90% agreement, and recommendations reached at least 95% agreement. At the core of PCC is an effective primary healthcare (PHC) system, which prioritizes individual health, HrQoL and wellbeing and which adapts to evolving needs. Other core elements include: HCW responsibility to create safe, inclusive and stigma-free spaces; prioritizing community leadership, including in care provision by trained and compensated peers and community HCWs; power sharing within client-HCW relationships, reinforced by HCW training and client literacy; use of appropriate digital technology to increase engagement; and cross-disciplinary collaboration to address different health issues in an integrated manner. Recommendations include: policymakers setting national targets for self-reported HrQoL; strengthening integrated PHC; researchers prioritizing community-academic partnerships; and HCWs routinely assessing client-reported outcomes.
conclusionsOur findings outline a roadmap with roles and actions for different stakeholders to realize the full potential of PCC. Jointly, there is a need to foster a culture that hears all voices in the care team, including clients and their caregivers, the community and all HCW cadres. At a systems level, it will be crucial to strengthen HIV/PHC integration and align with the universal health coverage agenda for increased investment in inclusive, responsive and sustainable healthcare for all.
