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

purposeTo estimate the high-risk human papillomavirus (HR-HPV) prevalence in a hospital-based population using the Cervista PATIENTS AND

methodsIn a hospital-based population, a total of 10,771 women from the Fujian Province were screened for cervical cancer and precancerous lesions using the thinprep cytologic test (TCT) and/or the Cervista. Women with HR-HPV infection and/or abnormal TCT were referred for colposcopy and biopsy. Pathological diagnosis was used as the gold standard.

resultsThe overall HR-HPV prevalence was 16.57%. Among 10,229 cases, 976 had abnormal cytology results, of which, the HR-HPV positivity rate was 60.35% in this opportunistic screening population. The most common HR-HPV infection style was a simple infection. The most common species was A9 which was also the most prevalent species in all age. The women with CIN2+ (high-grade squamous intraepithelial lesion [HSIL]), especially cancer, were mostly concentrated in the age from 51 to 60 years old. The peak of CIN1 (low-grade squamous intraepithelial lesion, LSIL) prevalence was in the women aged 31-40. When using CIN1+, CIN2+ and CIN3+ as observed endpoints, the sensitivities were 86.07%, 92.73%, and 93.30% and negative likelihood ratio (NPV) were 99.15%, 99.75% and 99.83%, respectively. Cervista and TCT co-testing achieved the highest sensitivity and the lowest NLR.

conclusionThe Cervista could be easily introduced in clinical practice in combination with TCT for cervical cancer screening in China. Patients with species A9 infection require a more actively clinical intervention.
