HPV Vaccination of Girl Child in India: Intervention for Primary Prevention of Cervical Cancer
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 13 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled 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.
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
Over the past 40 years mortality from carcinoma of the cervix has fallen due to improved treatment and the introduction of national screening programs. Awareness and health-seeking practices have been shown to be poor in many developing countries, necessitating the need for proper awareness and vaccination program The HPV vaccination is of public health importance. The Indian Academy of Pediatrics Committee on Immunization (IAPCOI) recommends offering HPV vaccine to all females who can afford the vaccine. Vaccination can be given to females as young as 9 years as well as in those aged 13–26 years who have not previously completed vaccination. The primary obstacle to HPV vaccination is financial. There are bivalent, Quadrivalent and Nonavalent HPV vaccines available based on protection against number of HPV subtypes. HPV vaccination and regular cervical screening is the most effective way to prevent cervical cancer. Parents/caregivers of child must be educated regarding HPV vaccination before offering this chemoprophylaxis against cervical cancer. Gaps and barriers to the access and delivery of HPV vaccination need to be identified, so that scientific and public health communities and civil society can be mobilised to adopt the vaccination policy.
