Examination of 93 cases of perianal warts and suggestion of a new classification.

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
purposeThe anatomical distribution of perianal warts is associated with patient characteristics such as sexual orientation. The purpose of this study is to confirm this experiential knowledge using a quantitative classification system and analysis and to obtain findings useful for future treatment.
methodsFrom January 2014 to December 2020, 93 patients with perianal warts presented to our hospital. Patients were analyzed for age, sex, lesion site, and recurrence type, among other factors. The lesion site was divided into skin (S) and anal epithelium (anoderm, A), and the number and degree of each were classified into grades 0 to 3. The higher grade between S and A determines its dominant type, such as type S (e.g., S3A1) and type A (e.g., S0A2).
resultsThe average age of the patients was 39.6 years, and the percentage of patients who were not married was 54.8%. In all, 95.8% of patients were positive for low-risk human papillomavirus (HPV). Type S accounted for 80.6%, whereas type A accounted for 9.7%. Type A cases were all male and were all presumed to be men who have sex with men (MSM). This indicates that the determination of type A may be highly specific for MSM. The type at the time of recurrence was the same type at the time of the first surgery in almost all cases.
conclusionIn cases of perianal warts, it is useful to analyze the lesion by considering the range and grade separately for daily clinical practice on proctologist.
