1 · What the graph read from 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.

2 · The registry

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

We have evaluated a neutralizing antibody assay which uses human papillomavirus (HPV) type 16 (HPV-16) and HPV-18 pseudovirions carrying a secretory alkaline phosphatase reporter gene and which can potentially measure functionally relevant HPV type-specific neutralizing antibodies. The reproducibility of the assay was excellent; for HPV-16, the intra- and interassay kappa values were 0.95 and 0.90, respectively; and for HPV-18, the corresponding values were 0.90 and 0.90. This assay was used to describe the kinetics of the neutralizing antibody response in a cohort of 42 young women who were recruited soon after first intercourse and who first tested positive for HPV-16 DNA or HPV-18 DNA, or both, during follow-up. Most women seroconverted following the first detection of type-specific HPV DNA and remained seropositive until the end of follow-up. Our findings are broadly consistent with those of two other cohort studies which have measured the serological response following an incident infection by using the technically simpler virus-like-particle-based enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay.
