Changes in geographic drive time access to pre-exposure prophylaxis (PrEP) in the United States, 2017 to 2025.
Article in Preventive medicine reports, 2026. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 papers.
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: Assess current drive times to the nearest pre-exposure prophylaxis (PrEP) provider in each county in the contiguous United States (US) and examine changes since the last analysis (2017). Methods: PrEP provider data were obtained from Results: In 2025, median drive time was 30.2 min, increasing with decreasing urbanicity ( Conclusions: While PrEP access has improved nationally, important geographic disparities remain. Programs and policies must prioritize expanding access to PrEP to less urban areas to end the HIV epidemic in the US.
