Identifying Implementation Gaps in the HIV Prevention Cascade among Peruvian Men Who Have Sex with Men.
Article in AIDS and behavior, 2026. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 papers.
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
Despite expansion of publicly funded HIV pre-exposure prophylaxis (PrEP) in Peru, uptake remains limited. We conducted a cross-sectional online survey (June-August 2023) among 463 men who have sex with men eligible for PrEP to examine progression across the PrEP cascade and identify implementation-relevant determinants of PrEP seeking and initiation. Although 78.6% reported readiness to start PrEP, only 30.5% had sought PrEP and 17.3% had ever initiated. Exploratory factor analysis identified five implementation-related constructs, including actionable PrEP knowledge, self-efficacy, action planning, social support, and cost concerns. In stage-specific multivariable models, higher actionable PrEP knowledge was strongly associated with seeking PrEP (aOR 4.01, 95% CI 2.61-6.33) and initiation (aOR 3.17, 95% CI 1.52-7.01). Higher income was also associated with initiation. Substantial implementation gaps exist between readiness and uptake. Multi-level strategies that strengthen meaningful knowledge delivery and reduce structural barriers may improve PrEP cascade progression in Peru.
