Prevalence of and risk factors for chlamydia in female outpatients with genital tract infections: a nationwide multi-center, cross-sectional study in China.
Article in Frontiers in public health, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 7 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
Introduction: Methods: A prospective, multicenter epidemiological study of genital chlamydia prevalence in 3008 patients with genital tract infections in 13 hospitals in 12 provinces of China was performed between May 2017 and November 2018. Vaginal secretion specimens were collected for the clinical diagnosis of vaginitis, whereas cervical secretion specimens were tested for Results: Totally 2,908 participants were included. The prevalence rates of chlamydia and gonococcal infections in women with genital tract infections were 6.33% (184/2908) and 0.01% (20/2908), respectively. Multivariate analysis showed high risk factors for chlamydia were premarital sex behavior, first sexual intercourse before the age of 20 and bacterial vaginosis. Discussion: Given that most chlamydia cases are asymptomatic and no vaccine is currently available, chlamydia prevention strategies should include behavioral interventions as well as early screening programs to identify and treat individuals with genital tract infections, especially those with the above identified risk factors.
