Illness Perception Clusters Moderated the Association Between HIV-related Stigma and Resilience in Mother-Child Dyads Living with HIV: An Actor-Partner Interdependence Moderation Approach.

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
Illness perceptions (beliefs about illness identity, impact, understanding, and control) are connected with clinical and psychological outcomes. According to the relationship-oriented model of HIV-related stigma, stigma affects individuals and their significant others. Among mothers living with HIV and their children with perinatally acquired HIV (PHIV) who experience stigma, adaptive or maladaptive illness perception clusters could play a moderating role. This study investigated the extent to which illness perception clusters moderate the dyadic stigma-resilience associations among such mothers and children. In this cross-sectional survey, 123 Chinese dyads of mothers living with HIV and children with PHIV completed measures of illness perceptions, HIV-related stigma, and resilience. For both mothers and children, hierarchical cluster analyses identified an adaptive cluster (lower perceived impact and higher control; mothers: 37.4%, children: 56.9%) and a maladaptive cluster (higher perceived impact and lower control; mothers: 62.6%, children: 43.1%). Mothers and children in the adaptive cluster reported lower stigma and higher resilience. Actor-partner interdependence models (APIM) examined dyadic stigma-resilience associations, showing that higher maternal and child stigma predicted lower child resilience. APIM moderation models showed that illness perception clusters moderated the dyadic stigma-resilience associations: only among dyads with mothers in the maladaptive cluster, mothers' and children's higher stigma predicted their own lower resilience. Only among children in the adaptive cluster, children's higher stigma predicted their lower resilience. These findings extend the relationship-oriented model to mothers and their children living with HIV and call for consideration of both members' illness perceptions and mothers' HIV-related stigma.
