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

introductionHuman papillomavirus (HPV) infection is strongly associated with risk of cervical cancer and genital warts.

aimThe study aimed to report the prevalence of genus alpha human papillomavirus (HPV) types in women with cervical infection and/or inflammatory in Western Iran. MATERIALS AND

methodsIn a cross-sectional study, 435 women were clinically diagnosed with cervical infections. The method of HPVs detection was polymerase chain reaction (PCR). The majority of patients (304 patients) did Pap smear based on liquid-based specimens.

resultsOut of 435 patients, 150 patients (34.5%) had HPV positivity that the prevalence of high-risk HPVs was 52.7%. Out of 76 patients with Pap smear positivity, 68.4% had atypical squamous cells of undetermined significance cytology class and 31.6% had low-grade squamous intraepithelial lesion cytology class. The most prevalence rate of HPV was in age ≤30 years. HPV 16 and HPV 56 were the most prevalence rate among high-risk HPVs. Overall HPV alpha-10 (59%) and HPV alpha-9 (32.2%) had the most prevalence rate.

conclusionsAmong high-risk HPVs, HPV 16 was the most common HPV detected in our population with a very low prevalence of HPV 18. In addition, HPV 6 and then HPV 11 had the most prevalence rate in the women with uterine cervix (cervical) infection among low-risk HPVs.
