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

Recurrent Respiratory Papillomatosis(RRP) is a rare disease with severe morbidity. Treatment is surgical. Prevailing viewpoint is that prophylactic HPV vaccines do not have therapeutic benefit due to their modus operandi. Studies on HPV vaccination alongside surgery were meta-analysed to test effect on burden of disease. Databases were accessed Nov and Dec 2021 [PubMed, Cochrane, Embase and Web of Science]. Main outcome measured was: Mean paired differences in the number of surgeries or recurrences per month. Analyses was performed using: Random effect maximal likelihood estimation model using the Stata module Mataan(StataCorp. 2019. Stata Statistical Software: Release 16. College Station, TX:StataCorp LLC.) Our results found n = 38 patients, suitable for syntheses with one previous meta-analyses (4 published, 2 unpublished studies) n = 63, total of n = 101 patients. Analyses rendered an overall reduction of 0.123 recurrences or surgeries per month (95% confidence interval [0.064, 0.183]). Our meta-analyses concludes that HPV vaccine is a beneficial adjunct therapy alongside surgery.
