Genotypic distribution and prevalence of human papillomavirus infection in an apparently healthy female population in Bangladesh.
Article in IJID regions, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 9 papers.
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
Objective: Human papillomavirus (HPV) comprises around 120 genotypically related viruses, classified into low- and high-risk HPVs, which are capable of replicating inside the keratinocytes of skin or mucous membranes. Studies suggest that infections with HPV-16 or HPV-18 have a higher rate of developing cancer. The aim of our study was to detect HPV early, and to estimate the genotype-specific prevalence of HPV in apparently healthy and asymptomatic females in Bangladesh. Method: After cervical swab specimen collection, a VIA test was performed to identify any type of abnormality in the cervix. A multiplex PCR amplification of HPV DNA, using L1 consensus primer systems, was performed with type-specific primers, followed by sequencing to detect HPV genotypes. Result: Of the 417 females, 121 were found to be HPV positive. The most prevalent high-risk HPV genotypes were found to be HPV-16 and HPV-18. Different patient demographic parameters, such as age, socioeconomic status, education, and history of first intercourse, were also studied to establish correlations with HPV infection. Conclusion: Our results might provide some insights into factors that influence the development of cervical cancer. They might also help in guiding better patient management, increased public health awareness, further testing, and the implementation of existing vaccines.
