Validation of self-reported human papillomavirus vaccination in young adult men who have sex with men.
Observational study in Human vaccines & immunotherapeutics, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 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
The Victorian Government introduced a time-limited human papillomavirus (HPV) catch-up program for gay, bisexual, and other men who have sex with men (GBMSM) aged ≤ 26 years in 2017-2019. We conducted a retrospective observational study to examine the accuracy of the self-report of HPV vaccination status using computer-assisted self-interviewing versus their immunization history via electronic health records. We included GBMSM aged 23-30 years visiting the Melbourne Sexual Health Centre (MSHC) in 2020-2021 because they were age-eligible for the HPV catch-up program in Victoria, Australia. Individuals who were unsure about their vaccination status were categorized as 'unvaccinated'. Of the 1,786 eligible men, 1,665 men self-reported their HPV vaccination status: 48.8% (
