High-risk human papillomavirus-18 uses an mRNA sequence to synthesize oncoprotein E6 in tumors.

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
Cervical cancer is the fourth most common cause of cancer in women worldwide in terms of both incidence and mortality. Persistent infection with high-risk types of human papillomavirus (HPV), namely 16, 18, 31, 33, 35, 39, 45, 51, 52, 56, 58, 59, and 68, constitute a necessary cause for the development of cervical cancer. Viral oncoproteins E6 and E7 play central roles in the carcinogenic process by virtue of their interactions with cell master proteins such as p53, retinoblastoma (Rb), mammalian target of rapamycin (mTOR), and c-MYC. For the synthesis of E6 and E7, HPVs use a bicistronic messenger RNA (mRNA) that has been studied in cultured cells. Here, we report that in cervical tumors, HPV-18, -39, and -45 transcribe E6/E7 mRNAs with extremely short 5' untranslated regions (UTRs) or even lacking a 5' UTR (i.e., zero to three nucleotides long) to express E6. We show that the translation of HPV-18 E6 cistron is regulated by the motif ACC
