Prevalence and Distribution of High- and Low- Risk HPV Genotypes in Women Living in the Metropolitan Area of Naples: A Recent Update.
Article in Asian Pacific journal of cancer prevention : APJCP, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 5 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
introductionHuman papillomavirus (HPV) can infect both male and female genitals, skin, and mucous membranes, causing benign or malignant lesions. HPV is a common sexually transmitted infection and it is the main cause of cervical cancer. The present retrospective study updated the previously published data on HPV genotypes distribution among women living in Naples. MATERIALS AND
methodsIn this study, 502 cervical scrape specimens were collected from women with abnormal cytological indication and analyzed for HPV DNA identification by Linear Array HPV genotyping test.
resultsThe HPV infection rate was 24.1%. HPV-16 (14.6%) was the most representative HR-HPV genotypes, followed by HPV-31 (13.8%), -18 (9.2%), and HPV-51 (8.5%). In addition, HPV-42 (16.4%) was the most prevalent genotype among LR-HPV genotypes (low-risk human papillomavirus). It was also found that women at the age group of 23-29 years (42.5%) were at the highest risk of HPV infection. It was found that the HPV-16 frequency decreased, but HPV-31 and -18 frequency increased a little. The LR HPV-53 frequency decreased, leaving the first place for abundance to the LR HPV-42. HPV-6 frequency did not change. LR HPV -11 was no more present. Merging <23 and 23-29 age classes into one class followed the same result.
conclusionHPV prevalence declined in comparison to the previous data. A frequency variation was recorded for several genotypes in this study. Data can be useful to implement the preventative strategies and to promote HPV vaccination.
