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

Introduction: Method: A cross-sectional survey using an anonymous questionnaire was conducted among women attending STI center in two hospitals in western and southern Reunion Island during one year. All women who had performed a CT PCR, based on vaginal self-swabs, were included. Results: Among the 620 patients tested, the prevalence of infection was 6.6% (95% CI [4.7-8.6]). By age group, the highest prevalence was between 12 and 17 years with 14.3% positive tests compared to 7.5% and 3.9% respectively in 18-24 and 25-67 year age group (p = 0.003). The risk factors for CT were a young age (p = 0.02), a first sexual intercourse between 11 and 14 years old (p = 0.01), lack of previous STI screening history (p = 0.02), and the following motives for seeking screening: "partner unfaithfulness" (p = 0.01) and "infected partner" (p = 0.02). Conclusion: This study highlights the high prevalence of CT among Reunionese minors. A more systematic screening and a reinforcement of STI awareness among young people in Reunion Island seem to be essential.
