Human papillomavirus (HPV) types 16 and 18 in liquid-based cervical cytology samples.

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
Human papillomavirus (HPV) DNA testing is replacing cervical cytology as a primary cervical cancer screening tool. The aim of this study was to determine the frequency of occurrence of HPV types 16 and 18 in liquid-based cytology (LBC) cervical samples in our set-up. This study comprised of 302 LBC cervical samples. HPV 16 and HPV 18 were detected by polymerase chain reaction (PCR), and the results were compared between normal (n = 155), inflammatory (n = 99), squamous (n = 37) and glandular abnormalities (n = 11). Of our patient cohort, 73.8 % was ≤40 years old. We found HPV 16 DNA in 91/302 (30.1 %) cases and HPV 18 DNA in 21/302 (6.95 %). HPV types 16 and 18 were detected in 25.8 and 4.5 % cytologically normal samples, respectively. HPV 16 was positive in 29.3 % of inflammatory samples. Squamous cervical abnormalities were more often HPV positive (HPV 16 in 48.6 %; HPV 18 in 29.7 %) than glandular abnormalities (36.4 and 18.2 %, respectively). We found high-risk HPV DNA in more than one third of the tested women. A good number of these HPV-positive cases were negative in cervical cytology.
