Exploration of the effect of human papillomavirus (HPV) vaccination in a cohort of pregnant women in Montreal, 2010-2016.

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
HPV vaccination efficacy has been shown in clinical trials but it is important to verify population level vaccine effectiveness (VE). We aimed to explore VE and herd effect using HPV infection data from a cohort study of Canadian pregnant women. We analyzed the baseline data of the HERITAGE study, which includes pregnant women recruited in Montreal between 2010-2012 and 2015-2016. Cervicovaginal samples self-collected in the first trimester were tested for 36 HPV types. Vaccination status was self-reported. VE and 95% confidence intervals (CI) were estimated by comparing the prevalence of HPV between vaccinated and unvaccinated women. Herd effect was explored by comparing HPV prevalence in unvaccinated women between the 2 recruitment periods. Adjusted ORs (95%CI) were estimated using exact logistic regression. The proportion of vaccinated women with at least one dose of 4vHPV was 7.5%. Although most of them were vaccinated after the onset of sexual activity, a high VE was found for HPV-16/18 (86.1% (95%CI: 15.0-99.7)). For HPV-6/11/16/18 and for HPV-31/33/45, VE was 61.9% (-23.5-92.6) and 57.0% (-47.7-92.0%), respectively. We also observed a non-statistically significant reduction in the prevalence of HPV-6/11/16/18 and HPV-31/33/45 among unvaccinated women recruited during the second recruitment period (adjusted OR: 0.8 (0.4-1.8) and 0.8 (0.3-1.7), respectively).
