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

Human papillomavirus-associated vulvar intraepithelial neoplasia (high-grade squamous intraepithelial neoplasia [HSIL] or VIN of usual type) is a lesion characterized by atypia extending from the basal layer to the upper epidermis. There are only rare reports of vulvar intraepithelial morphology exhibiting a pagetoid pattern of intraepithelial dissemination. We herein report two cases of vulvar HSIL in which a pagetoid pattern of spread and a largely uninvolved basal layer represented a diagnostic pitfall for extramammary Paget disease. Nuclear atypia reminiscent of HSIL in addition to expression of p16, KRT5/6, and p40 were however in favor of pagetoid HSIL. Although there is morphological and immunohistochemical overlap between these two entities, an accurate diagnosis is important, since an erroneous diagnosis of vulvar extramammary Paget disease may lead to an extensive workup comprising radiological imaging, colonoscopy, and cystoscopy.
