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

The association of human papillomavirus (HPV) in laryngeal malignancies is largely known. This study evaluated the association between HPV and benign laryngeal lesions and also the role of smoking and alcohol consumption in increasing the prevalence of HPV in such benign lesions. Seventy-eight specimens of benign laryngeal lesions including 26 polyps, 26 dysplasia, and 26 other lesions such as nodules and cysts were enrolled in this study. Polymerase chain reaction (PCR) technique was used to detect HPV DNA in the tissues. The role of smoking and alcohol consumption in the prevalence of HPV was also evaluated through appropriate statistical tests. This study showed that the prevalence of HPV in benign laryngeal lesions was not statistically significant. The Cohen's effect size for comparing polyps vs. other lesions was nearly 0.7, indicating that HPV prevalence in laryngeal polyps may be clinically meaningful. Another finding in our study is the role of smoking in increasing the HPV prevalence in laryngeal polyps (
