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
ObjectivesWe assessed whether survey mode influenced reporting of sexual behaviors and psychosocial factors among men who have sex with men (MSM) in Kenya.MethodsIn cross-sectional analysis of baseline data from 493 MSM in Kisumu and Nairobi enrolled in a prospective cohort study, participants were randomized 1:1 to Computer-Assisted Personal Interview (CAPI) or Audio Computer-Assisted Self-Interview (ACASI). We compared responses across survey modes using Poisson regression with robust variance, adjusting for socio-demographics.ResultsIn both sites, CAPI users more frequently reported sex with a female partner. In Kisumu, CAPI users were less likely to report receptive anal intercourse. In Nairobi, CAPI users were less likely to report food insecurity, transactional sex, and STI symptoms.ConclusionWhile most responses were similar across modes, ACASI prompted higher reporting of sensitive behaviors, highlighting added value for capturing stigmatized and sensitive information. Offering both methods may enhance data quality and respect participant preferences.
