Amount of Narratives Used on Japanese Pro- and Anti-HPV Vaccination Websites: A Content Analysis
Article in Asian Pacific journal of cancer prevention : APJCP, 2018. 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
Background: HPV vaccination is an effective way in preventing cervical cancer. However, HPV vaccination coverage rate has fallen to only a few percent in Japan. Anti HPV-vaccination websites often use narratives of those who have experienced adverse reactions to HPV vaccine to enhance their persuasiveness. Scholars suggest using the same medium to promote HPV vaccination online; e.g., presenting narratives of those who have experienced cervical cancer. We examined the amount of narratives used on Japanese pro- and anti-HPV vaccination websites. Methods: We conducted online searches using two major search engines (Googl.jp and Yahoo!.jp). Identified websites were classified as “pro,” “anti,” or “neutral” depending on their claims. Two independent raters coded the pro and anti websites and counted the number of narratives of people who experienced side effects of HPV vaccine or cervical cancer. Results: A total 26% of anti websites posted narratives on side effects. No pro websites posted narratives about having cervical cancer. Conclusion: Pro-HPV vaccination websites is recommended to post narratives to enhance the persuasiveness of their arguments.
