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

The purpose of this study was to review and evaluate systematically the scientific evidence on the relationship between systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE), human papillomavirus (HPV) infection, pre-cancerous cervical abnormalities, and cervical cancer. Establishing strict inclusion and exclusion criteria, we performed an extensive search for studies in MEDLINE and BIREME databases to assess the studies that evaluated the frequency of HPV infection, pre-cancerous cervical abnormalities, and cervical cancer in women with SLE. Secondary references were additionally obtained from the included articles. Thirty-three articles met the criteria previously established. Fifteen out of 18 studies that performed cytological analysis showed a higher frequency of squamous intraepithelial lesions in SLE patients compared with normal women. Moreover, three studies found a higher frequency of high-grade squamous intraepithelial lesions. Additionally, it was observed that women with SLE had a higher frequency of HPV infection, confirmed by molecular biology techniques. Curiously, despite the above findings, no increased frequency of cervical cancer was observed in the majority of the studies which addressed this issue. Five studies observed a relationship between cervical abnormalities and previous use of immunosuppressive drugs. This review suggests that SLE patients seem not to be at increased risk for developing cervical cancer; however, they should be considered at higher risk for HPV infection and cervical dysplasia than the general population. Thus, gynecological visits at shorter intervals seem to be a reasonable approach for those patients.
