1 · What the graph read from it

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.

2 · The registry

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

This study assesses expansion of the "Test-to-PrEP" (T2P) social network strategy to include people with HIV (PWH) as distributors of HIV self-test kits (HIVST) and PrEP/HIV treatment resources, in Miami and a newly introduced site in San Juan. PWH showed strong interest despite perceived barriers such as stigma. Stakeholders found the strategy acceptable and compatible. Findings highlight the potential of PWH-led T2P implementation to advance HIV prevention and treatment, underscoring the need to support scale-up and address barriers. (
