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

objectiveSpecific hr-HPV genotypes have different natural histories and different oncogenic capacity. This study aimed to investigate the risk of CIN2+ recurrence of the individual genotypes and evaluate how the duration of HPV persistence influences the risk of developing recurrent 16 cervical dysplasia of high grade (CIN2+).

methodsData from patients with persistent HPV infection after primary conization were retrospectively extracted. Kaplan-Meier proportional hazards models were used to evaluate associations between the duration of HPV persistence and the risk of developing recurrent CIN2+. Kruskal-Wallis testing with Dunn's multiple comparison test was used to test whether there was a statistically significant difference in the time to development of tumor recurrences between different genotypes.

resultsOverall, 333 patients met the inclusion criteria. In 285 cases the HPV infection was persistent, in 48 cases (18%) it was transient, i.e., different genotypes after LEEP. Overall were diagnosed 39 relapses (13.7%), 79.5% (31/39 cases) were due to genotype 16, 20.5% (8/39) were linked to the other genotypes. Persistence of genotype 16 showed a 7-fold increased risk of developing a CIN2+ relapse, OR = 7.08 (95%CI: 3.12-16.08). Furthermore, the majority of relapses (38/39) occurred within 24 months of persistence with a cut-off represented by 18 months (
