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
abstractCisgender Black women living with HIV (BWLWH) face significant intersectional stigma, racism, and discrimination, contributing to lower adherence to antiretroviral therapy (ART). Given the role of religion and spirituality in Black communities, we explored their influence on HIV treatment. We conducted semi-structured interviews with 30 BWLWH in Washington, DC ( M age = 52.7, SD = 15.95), living with HIV for an average of 26 years ( SD = 9.72); 33% were virally suppressed. Interviews averaged 52 min and revealed intersectional stigma from multiple sources that negatively affected ART adherence. Despite stigma in religious spaces, many participants relied on spirituality to cope, stay in care, and find meaning in their diagnosis. Our findings highlight spirituality as a vital support for BWLWH. Future interventions should address both intersectional stigma and the protective role of spirituality to improve ART adherence and help reach the goals of Ending the HIV Epidemic.
