Profiles of Human Papillomavirus Detection of the Multinucleated Cells in Cervical Smears.
Article in Microorganisms, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 papers.
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
Many genotypes of human papillomaviruses (HPVs) may lead to morphological changes in cells, resulting in various atypical cells, such as multinucleated cells (MNCs) and koilocytes, in the cervix. However, the relationships between the profiles of HPV genotypes and MNCs are not exactly known. Thus, this study comprehensively profiles the HPV genotypes in MNCs using a microdissection method. HPV genotypes and MNCs were detected in 651 cases with an abnormal Pap smear by liquid-based cytology. Specific HPV genotypes were also detected, including HPV16, 34, and 56, which might be associated with MNCs. This result suggests that the high-risk HPV genotypes, such as HPV16 and 56, are associated with the atypical changes in MNC morphology from normal cervical cells. The results also show that MNCs may be a predictor of squamous intraepithelial lesion.
