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
Introduction: The hijra and transgender (H/TG) group is vulnerable to HIV and this is the cause of concern in India. Therefore, this paper aims to assess the correlates of inconsistent condom use (ICU) during sexual intercourse among H/TG in India. Method: We analyzed the secondary H/TG data from the National Integrated Behavioral and Biological Survey (IBBS), 2014-2015. To evaluate the correlates of inconsistent condom usage during sexual intercourse among H/TG people in India, unadjusted and adjusted odds ratios with a 95% confidence interval, were calculated using univariate, bivariate, and multivariable logistic regression. Results: The prevalence of ICU, among H/TG was found to be 45.35%. The odds of ICU were significantly higher, among those who had their first sexual intercourse at an age less than 18 years (aOR: 4.68, 95% CI: 2.57-8.53), aged between 18 to 24 years (aOR: 3.22, 95% CI: 1.76-5.91) and who did not know the age of first sexual intercourse (aOR: 5.34, 95% CI: 2.89-9.87) as compared to those who have had first sexual intercourse at the age of 25 years or more. H/TG, who had regular non-paying male partners had significantly higher odds (aOR: 1.47, 95% CI: 1.27-1.72) of ICU than those who did not have regular non-paying male partners. Conclusions: Among the characteristics linked to inconsistent condom usage among H/TG in India were physical violence, alcohol consumption, first sexual experience at a younger age, sexual contact with a frequent non-paying partner, and age more than 35.
