Changes of the vaginal microbiota in HPV infection and cervical intraepithelial neoplasia: a cross-sectional analysis.

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
This study aimed to explore the changes of the vaginal microbiota and enzymes in the women with high-risk human papillomavirus (HR-HPV) infection and cervical lesions. A total of 448 participants were carried out HPV genotyping, cytology tests, and microecology tests, and 28 participants were treated as sub-samples, in which vaginal samples were characterized by sequencing the bacterial 16S V4 ribosomal RNA (rRNA) gene region. The study found the prevalence of HR-HPV was higher in patients with BV (P = 0.036). The HR-HPV infection rate was 72.73% in G. vaginalis women, which was significantly higher than that of women with lactobacillus as the dominant microbiota (44.72%) (P = 0.04). The positive rate of sialidase (SNA) was higher in women with HR-HPV infection (P = 0.004) and women diagnosed with cervical intraepithelial neoplasia (CIN) (P = 0.041). In HPV (+) women, the α-diversity was significantly higher than that in HPV (-) women. The 16S rRNA gene-based amplicon sequencing results showed that Lactobacillus was the dominant bacteria in the normal vaginal microbiota. However, the proportion of Gardnerella and Prevotella were markedly increased in HPV (+) patients. Gardnerella and Prevotella are the most high-risk combination for the development of HPV (+) women. The SNA secreted by Gardnerella and Prevotella may play a significant role in HPV infection progress to cervical lesions.
