Results from Two HPV-Based Cervical Cancer Screening-Family Planning Integration Models in Malawi: A Cluster Randomized Trial.
Article in Cancers, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 6 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
We conducted a cluster randomized trial of two models for integrating HPV self-collection into family-planning (FP) services at 16 health facilities in Malawi between March 2020-December 2021. Model 1 involved providing only clinic-based HPV self-collection, whereas Model 2 included both clinic-based and community-based HPV self-collection. An endline household survey was performed in sampled villages and households between October-December 2021 in the catchment areas of the health facilities. We analyzed 7664 surveys from 400 villages. Participants from Model 2 areas were more likely to have ever undergone cervical cancer screening (CCS) than participants from Model 1 areas, after adjusting for district, facility location (urban versus rural), and facility size (hospital versus health center) (adjusted odds ratio = 1.73; 95% CI: 1.29, 2.33). Among participants who had ever undergone CCS, participants from Model 2 were more likely to report having undergone HPV self-collection than participants from Model 1 (50.5% versus 22.8%,
