Screening for Human Papillomavirus-Associated Cervical Disease in HIV-Infected Women.
Review in Topics in antiviral medicine. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 papers.
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
HIV-infected women have higher rates of persistence of human papillomavirus (HPV) infection, of abnormal cervical cytology results, and of cervical cancer than uninfected women. It is currently recommended that HIV-infected, sexually active women have a Papanicolaou (Pap) test performed at the time of initial diagnosis of HIV infection, followed by annual Pap testing if the previous test result is normal. Women whose test results show abnormalities greater than atypical squamous cells of undetermined significance (ASCUS) should be referred for colposcopy. Those with ASCUS should undergo immediate colposcopy or repeat cervical cytology in 6 months to 12 months, and those whose repeat cervical cytology results show ASCUS or greater abnormalities should undergo colposcopy. Recent findings indicate that screening intervals can be lengthened for HIV-infected women whose Pap test results are persistently normal and who are engaged in routine care, and that HPV DNA testing may have a role in screening. This article summarizes a presentation by Marla J. Keller, MD, at the IAS-USA continuing education program, Improving the Management of HIV Disease, held in Atlanta, Georgia, in March 2015.
