Human papillomavirus DNA testing for cervical cancer screening: practical aspects in developing countries.
Review in Molecular diagnosis & therapy, 2010. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
Cervical cancer is the second most common cancer in women worldwide, and the most common cause of death from cancer in women in the developing world. Cervical cancer represents the only gynecologic cancer that can be prevented through regular screening. Although there are established screening programs in the Western world that have effectively reduced the burden of cervical cancer, these programs have relied on insensitive screening technologies that depend on the long preinvasive phase of cervical carcinogenesis. The developing world faces specific additional challenges in implementing a successful cervical cancer screening program. The association between cervical cancers and human papillomavirus (HPV) make testing for the presence of HPV DNA a valuable screening tool. This review focuses on practical aspects of the implementation and delivery of HPV testing as the primary cervical cancer screening strategy in the developing world, and attempts to offer some solutions to the real-world challenges faced in these regions.
