Cofactors and Their Association with Cancer of the Uterine Cervix in Women Infected with High-Risk Human Papillomavirus in South India.
Article in Asian Pacific journal of cancer prevention : APJCP, 2019. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 6 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
backgroundHuman papilloma viruses (HPVs) are recognized as the major etiological agents of most pre invasive and invasive cancer of the uterine cervix. Many cofactors in association with high-risk HPV (HR-HPV) trigger infection which leads to cervical carcinogenesis. The aim was to study various cofactors and their association with cervical cancer in women infected with HR-HPV.
methodsThe present study screened a total of 156 subjects for the presence of HPV infection. Association of various cofactors with cervical cancer was estimated using binary logistic regression analysis.
resultsThe HR-HPV infection showed a very significant risk factor for cervical cancer. Among the cofactors, the education level, early sexual exposure and age at pregnancy had no significant association while low socioeconomic status (SES) and high parity showed significant association as risk factors for cervical cancer. Tobacco chewing with betel quid was not significantly associated with cervical cancer.
conclusionsThe present study indicates that low SES is a major risk factor associated with cervical cancer. Bringing awareness about HPV infection and intensifying routine screening programs for cervical cancer will help reduce the risk of cervical cancer among women with low SES in this region.
