Willingness to Test for HIV and Initiate Post-exposure Prophylaxis Among Adolescent Girls and Young Women Seeking Emergency Contraceptive Pills in Pharmacies in Nairobi and Kisumu, Kenya: A Longitudinal Study.
Article in The Journal of the Association of Nurses in AIDS Care : JANAC. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
abstractAdolescent girls and young women (AGYW) often seek emergency contraceptive pills (ECP) within 72 hr of condomless sex, a critical period for HIV exposure prevention through testing and postexposure prophylaxis (PEP). Pharmacies, where most AGYW obtain ECP, provide an ideal setting for timely HIV prevention services. From May to October 2023, a longitudinal study was conducted among AGYW ages 15-24 years seeking ECP in five pharmacies in Nairobi and Kisumu. Eligible participants were not on preexposure prophylaxis and provided consent. Baseline and 10-day optional follow-up phone data assessed HIV testing history, risk perception, and willingness to test or start PEP. Of 297 screened, 200 enrolled (mean age = 22 years). Nearly all (97.5%) had previously tested for HIV; 79% were interested in pharmacy-based testing and 73% in PEP. By follow-up, 50.7% tested for HIV, and 10.5% initiated PEP. These findings suggest that pharmacies offer a promising avenue to link ECP users to timely HIV prevention service.
