Prevalence and Genotype Distribution of Human Papillomavirus Infection Among Women in Wuhan, China: A Retrospective Study.
Article in Infection and drug resistance, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 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
Purpose: Human papillomavirus (HPV) infection is a prevalent sexually transmitted infection worldwide, with its persistence being a significant factor in the development of cervical cancer and precancerous lesions. Understanding the prevalence and genotypes distribution of HPV can aid in the implementation of more focused strategies for cervical cancer prevention and treatment. This study aimed to investigate the prevalence and genotype distribution of HPV infection among outpatient-based populations in Wuhan, China. Methods: Our study retrospectively analyzed the results of cervical HPV screening in 14,492 outpatient women. The cervicovaginal infection of 18 high-risk genotypes and 10 low-risk genotypes were analyzed by PCR and reverse dot hybridization techniques. Results: The overall prevalence of HPV infection in the outpatient female population was 15.33%, with a predominance of single infection and a predominance of dual infection among multiple infections. The top five genotypes in terms of prevalence of HR-HPV and LR-HPV were HPV-52 (3.77%), 53 (1.46%), 16 (1.31%), 58 (1.19%), 39 (1.18%) for HR-HPV, and HPV-54 (1.23%), 61 (1.08%), 81 (1.04%), 42 (0.87%), 44 (0.70%) for LR-HPV. Two peaks of HPV infection prevalence were observed among women under 25 years (22.88%) and over 56 years (24.26%). The prevalence and genotype distribution of HPV infection varied among different outpatient populations, with higher rates of HPV single infection, multiple infections, and infection across all ages observed in the gynecology outpatient population compared to the health check-up population. Conclusion: This study revealed the HPV prevalence and genotype distribution among different outpatient populations in Wuhan city, which may provide guidance for HPV vaccination and cervical cancer prevention strategies in the region.
