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

introductionBasal cell carcinoma (BCC) is the most common skin cancer in the Caucasian population. It is believed that infections caused by viruses from the genus

aimTo assess the presence and diversity of β-HPV in skin samples taken from the tumour and a fragment of healthy skin from the patients with BCC, as well as checking the correlation of factors listed below and presence of β-HPV infection in the studied patients. MATERIAL AND

methodsThe study was conducted on the skin biopsies from 73 patients with histopathologically confirmed BCC. The following data were collected from patients: sex, age, hair colour and tumour location. Using the polymerase chain reaction (PCR) test, the presence of β-HPV infection was detected in the tested samples. PCR and reverse hybridization assay were also used to genotype 25 types of β-HPV.

resultsA statistically significant correlation was found between the sex and BCC type, BCC type and tumour location, BCC type and exposure to UV radiation, as well as between the hair colour and tumour location. The correlation between the BCC type and the number of tumours and HPV types detected was also noted.

conclusionsPreliminary studies suggest that one of the risk factors for development of infiltrating lesions is the presence of a single HPV 93 infection, but further research is needed to confirm these assumptions.
