Trends in human papillomavirus infection and genotype distribution among males in Chongqing, China (2017-2022): an observational study.
Observational study in European journal of clinical microbiology & infectious diseases : official publication of the European Society of Clinical Microbiology, 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
purposeThis study aimed to investigate Human papillomavirus (HPV) infection and genotyping in men from Chongqing and analyze age-related trends to provide insights for HPV prevention and vaccination plans tailored for men in Chongqing, China.
methodsThis study is an observational study. We investigated male patients who underwent HPV screening at two hospitals in Chongqing from 2017 to 2022, totaling 4,381 cases, aged 18 to 85. HPV genotyping was conducted using the Hybribio Rapid GenoArray kit.
resultsAmong the 4,381 men, the overall HPV prevalence was 14.9%, peaking at 19.3% in 2022. Single HPV infection was 11.5%, and multiple infection was 3.4%. The most prevalent genotypes were HPV-52, HPV-16, and HPV-58. Single high-risk HPV infection peaked in the 36-45 age group, while multiple high-risk HPV infection decreased with age (P-trend < 0.01). Prevalence in the ≤ 25 age group was 3.7%. Single low-risk HPV infection also decreased with age (P-trend = 0.03). Genotypes covered by the nonavalent vaccine had the highest prevalence, increasing with age. Co-infection of HPV-16 with HPV-52 and HPV-58 was common. Single HPV infections were prevalent in cases of urethritis (30.8%), anogenital warts (36.4%), and genital warts (26.3%), while multiple HPV infections were significant in anogenital warts (18.2%).
conclusionsSingle HPV infection was predominant in Chongqing, with HPV-52, HPV-16, HPV-58, HPV-53, and HPV-39 being the most prevalent genotypes. The prevalence of genotypes covered by the nonavalent vaccine increased with age. This study offers valuable insights for developing male-specific HPV prevention strategies in Chongqing.
