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

Background: Among human papillomavirus (HPV) type, HPV16 displays the strongest carcinogenic capacity for cervical cancer, but the mechanism underlying this phenomenon remains unclear. We investigated the effect and the underlying mechanism of HPV16 on higher carcinogenic capacity than HPV58. Methods: We collected 4,030 cervical exfoliated cell samples for genotyping HPV using HybriBio's proprietary flow-through hybridization technique, liquid-based cytology (LBC), colposcopy, and biopsies if indicated. Four plasmids containing E6 and E7 of HPV16 and 58 were constructed and transfected into 293T and U2OS cells. We detected the cell phenotype using Cell Counting Kit 8 (CCK8) assay, Transwell assay, flow cytometry, and apoptosis assay; the expression of retinoblastoma protein (Rb) and phosphorylated Rb (pRb) was determined via Western blot; and the cell activity was determined via a zebrafish model treated with or without roscovitine. Results: The positive rates of HPV16 and 58 were, respectively, 18.9% and 19.7% in the ≤ low-grade squamous intraepithelial lesion (LSIL) group, 49.5% and 19.6% (P<0.001) in the high-grade squamous intraepithelial lesion (HSIL) group, 65.3% and 9.0% (P<0.001) in the cancer group. Conclusions: HPV16 possesses a stronger carcinogenic ability than does HPV 58, and the mechanism underlying this effect may be the impairment of the E7-Rb pathway.
