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

Prophylactic human papillomavirus (HPV) vaccines are recommended for prevention of HPV-associated cancers. Type-specific detection of HPV in formalin-fixed, paraffin-embedded (FFPE) tissues retrieved from diagnostic pathology laboratories is important in monitoring the impact of HPV vaccines. However, few typing assays have been validated for testing FFPE samples. Results of the Novaplex II HPV28 Detection (Novaplex) assay were compared with those from the reference assay (Linear Array with reflex Line Probe Assay) on 708 FFPE samples from cervical lesions. Novaplex showed high type-specific concordance with the reference method for HPV16/18, 9 types targeted by the Gardasil 9 vaccine, 14 high-risk types, and 21 types covered by comparison assays. The rate of inadequate samples was low in both approaches (reference, 3.4%; Novaplex, 1.7%). The proportion of discrepant types was less than 3.5% and positive concordance was greater than 75.0%. Furthermore, the type-specific positive agreement (92.0% to 98.0%), negative agreement (96.0% to 99.0%), and accuracy (97.0% to 99.0%) was high. Cohen's κ ranged from 0.86 to 0.89, indicating excellent agreement between Novaplex and reference assays. The results show that Novaplex is a suitable method for detection of HPV in FFPE tissues.
