Prevalence of bacterial vaginosis, sexually transmitted infections and their association with HPV infections in asymptomatic women attending antenatal care in Ethiopia.

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
Sexually transmitted infections (STIs) and human papillomavirus (HPV) infections are common among women of reproductive age and can lead to infertility, adverse pregnancy outcomes, neonatal infections and cervical cancer. In countries with limited medical coverage, untreated infections contribute to high morbidity. This study aimed to expand the current knowledge on the prevalence of bacterial vaginosis (BV) and STIs in pregnant Ethiopian women and assess the association of these conditions with HPV infections. Socio-demographic data and vaginal lavage samples were collected from 779 asymptomatic women aged 18 to 45 years (median age, 25.9 years) attending antenatal care in seven centres across Ethiopia. Multiplex polymerase chain reaction was used to test for BV,
