Human papillomavirus prevalence and type distribution in urine samples from Norwegian women aged 17 and 21 years: A nationwide cross-sectional study of three non-vaccinated birth cohorts.
Article in Papillomavirus research (Amsterdam, Netherlands), 2016. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 10 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
backgroundThe aim of the current study was to assess the HPV prevalence in unscreened and unvaccinated young women living in Norway, to provide important baseline data for early estimation of the impact of the HPV vaccination program.
methodsA total of 13,129 self-sampled urine samples from two complete birth-cohorts of 17-year old women born in 1994 and 1996 and one third of a birth-cohort of 21-year old women born in 1990, were analysed for the presence of 37 HPV types using PCR and a DNA hybridization technique.
resultsIn the two birth cohorts of 17-year old women, HPV was detected in 19.9% (95% CI 18.8-20.9) and 15.4% (95% CI 14.5-16.3), respectively. High-risk HPV types were detected in 11.2% (95% CI 10.3-12.0) and 7.6% (95% CI 6.9-8.2), respectively, while vaccine types were detected in 7.4% (95% CI 6.7-8.1) and 6.0% (95% CI 5.4-6.6), respectively. Among the 21-year old women HPV was detected in 45.4% (95% CI 42.9-47.8), whereas high-risk types were detected in 29.8% (95% CI 27.5-32.0). Vaccine types (HPV 6, 11, 16, 18) were detected in 16.2% (95% CI 14.4-18.1).
conclusionThis large population based study confirms that HPV testing in urine samples is easy and highly feasible for epidemiological studies and vaccine surveillance in young women. HPV was very common and a broad spectrum of HPV types was identified. Differences in HPV prevalence was seen both between age groups and between the two birth cohorts of 17-year old women.
