Correlates of willingness to use pre-exposure prophylaxis (PrEP) among young people impacted by HIV in Uganda.
Article in AIDS care, 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
We assessed the correlates of willingness to use PrEP among young people (YP) impacted by HIV in Uganda. This cross-sectional study included 905 YP aged 18-21 years, orphaned to AIDS and participating in a longitudinal study in Uganda. Willingness to use PrEP, the primary outcome, was measured using a hypothetical scenario. "If PrEP were safe, effective, free, and used by few people around you, how likely would you be willing to use it?" Independent variables included sociodemographic characteristics, perceived HIV risk, PrEP stigma, barriers to PrEP use, and social support. Multilevel mixed-effects logistic regression was used to examine the relationship between willingness to use PrEP and the independent variables, adjusting for clustering. 74.7% of participants reported willingness to use PrEP. Older age and perceived risk of HIV were associated with a higher likelihood of willingness to use PrEP (aOR = 1.10; 95% CI = 1.01, 1.21 and aOR = 1.65; 95% CI = 1.26, 2.17 respectively). Perceived PrEP stigma was associated with lower willingness (aOR = 0.30; 95% CI = 0.21, 0.42). YP impacted by HIV, show high willingness to use PrEP, influenced by age, risk perception, and stigma.
