Intrauterine Devices and Sexually Transmitted Infection among Older Adolescents and Young Adults in a Cluster Randomized Trial.
Trial report in Journal of pediatric and adolescent gynecology, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled it.
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
STUDY
objectiveProvider misconceptions regarding intrauterine device (IUD) safety for adolescents and young women can unnecessarily limit contraceptive options offered; we sought to evaluate rates of Neisseria gonorrhoeae or Chlamydia trachomatis (GC/CT) diagnoses among young women who adopted IUDs.
designSecondary analysis of a cluster-randomized provider educational trial.
settingForty US-based reproductive health centers.
participantsWe followed 1350 participants for 12 months aged 18-25 years who sought contraceptive care.
interventionsThe parent study assessed the effect of provider training on evidence-based contraceptive counseling.
main outcome measuresWe assessed incidence of GC/CT diagnoses according to IUD use and sexually transmitted infection risk factors using Cox regression modeling and generalized estimating equations.
resultsTwo hundred four participants had GC/CT history at baseline; 103 received a new GC/CT diagnosis over the 12-month follow-up period. IUDs were initiated by 194 participants. Incidence of GC/CT diagnosis was 10.0 per 100 person-years during IUD use vs 8.0 otherwise. In adjusted models, IUD use (adjusted hazard ratio [aHR], 1.31; 95% confidence interval [CI], 0.71-2.40), adolescent age (aHR, 1.28; 95% CI, 0.72-2.27), history of GC/CT (aHR, 1.23; 95% CI, 0.75-2.00), and intervention status (aHR, 1.12; 95% CI, 0.74-1.71) were not associated with GC/CT diagnosis; however, new GC/CT diagnosis rates were significantly higher among individuals who reported multiple partners at baseline (aHR, 2.0; 95% CI, 1.34-2.98).
conclusionIn this young study population with GC/CT history, this use of IUDs was safe and did not lead to increased GC/CT diagnoses. However, results highlighted the importance of dual sexually transmitted infection and pregnancy protection for participants with multiple partners.
