Acceptability of a Culturally Tailored eHealth Video Intervention "Put Yourself First" to Promote Preexposure Prophylaxis Awareness and Knowledge Among Young Black Women: Mixed Methods Pilot Study.
Article in JMIR formative research, 2026. 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
backgroundBlack women experience dual disparities with disproportionately high rates of HIV infection and low uptake of preexposure prophylaxis (PrEP). To address this issue, a culturally relevant eHealth video intervention was developed to increase awareness and uptake of PrEP.
objectiveThis study aims to evaluate the usability, acceptability, and impact of a culturally tailored eHealth video intervention ("Put Yourself First") on PrEP-related knowledge and motivation among young Black women.
methodsThis study used a sequential, mixed methods design. Thirteen young, primarily heterosexual, Black women, aged 18-25 years, were recruited from community-based organizations and social networks in New York City to participate in 2 evaluation focus groups. Participants completed pre- and postvideo assessments, followed by facilitated focus group discussions to elicit qualitative feedback on the video's usability, acceptability, and impact on PrEP knowledge.
resultsAfter watching the eHealth video, knowledge scores increased significantly postviewing (P=.04). Most participants indicated willingness to consider PrEP (10/13, 77%), and all reported intentions to recommend it to others (13/13, 100%). Overall, 92% (12/13) of the participants rated the video as very good or excellent. Participants found the video to be very interesting (11/13, 85%) and useful (12/13, 92%). The qualitative findings suggest that representation, authenticity, and the normalization of PrEP use emerged as critical drivers of acceptability. It also highlighted the video's relatability, cultural relevance, and ability to dispel misconceptions, while also identifying areas for refinement for future studies.
conclusionsFindings support the acceptability and usability of culturally tailored sex-positive eHealth interventions for improving PrEP awareness and motivation among young Black women. Culturally resonant multimedia centering the voices of young Black women to affirming pleasure, agency, and addressing structural barriers to engagement offers a promising strategy for HIV prevention.
