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

Men who have sex with men (MSM) harbor the highest risk for anal carcinoma, mainly caused by Human Papillomavirus (HPV). The use of HPV-related biomarkers in the screening for this neoplasia is still debated. We assessed the association between high-risk (hr)HPV DNA, HPV16/18 DNA, hrHPV E6/E7 mRNA, and p16/Ki-67 with cytological abnormalities (any grade) and high-grade intraepithelial lesions (HSIL) in HIV-uninfected and HIV-infected MSM. Overall, 150 cytological samples in PreservCyt (Hologic), with a negative to HSIL report, were analyzed for hrHPV DNA, hrHPV E6/E7 mRNA, and p16/Ki-67 using the Linear Array (Roche), Aptima (Hologic), and CINtec
