Heterogeneity in practitioner-reported barriers to use, cost considerations and priorities for point of care sexually transmitted infection tests on surveys across seven years.
Article in International journal of STD & AIDS, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
backgroundPoint of care diagnostic tests (POCTs) for sexually transmitted infections (STIs) have the potential to improve STI care worldwide. However, barriers to adoption, cost considerations and practitioner priorities may not be uniform globally and over time. We conducted two surveys, 7 years apart, among members of the International Union Against Sexually Transmitted Infections (IUSTI), and compare results here.
methodsSurveys were given to members attending two IUSTI conferences in 2012 (Australia) and 2019 (Estonia). Descriptive analyses were performed and chi-square or Fisher's exact tests conducted.
resultsAmongst
conclusionsPractitioner priorities for STI POCTs may be shifting. Cost may be critical to adoption in all settings. Larger studies are needed to verify findings.
