Risk-based triage strategy by extended HPV genotyping for women with ASC-US cytology.
Article in Annals of medicine, 2025. 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
objectiveWe attempted to evaluate the immediate high-grade squamous intraepithelial lesion-cervical intraepithelial neoplasia grade 2/3 or worse (HSIL-CIN2+/3+, hereafter referred to as CIN2+/3+) risk of specific human papillomavirus (HPV) genotype and form the precise risk-based triage strategy for atypical squamous cells of undetermined significance (ASC-US) women.
methodsThe clinical data of ASC-US women who underwent HPV genotyping testing and colposcopy were retrospectively reviewed. The distribution and CIN2+/3+ risks of specific HPV genotype were assessed by three approaches. The risk-based triage strategy was further established, and its efficacy in detecting CIN2+/3+ was estimated.
resultsTotally, 5553 ASC-US women including 3648 HPV-positive and 1905 HPV-negative were analysed. CIN2+/3+ were 662/319 cases, including 639/306 HPV-positive and 23/13 HPV-negative women. HPV16, HPV52, HPV58 and HPV18 were always among the top 5 ranking genotypes, no matter in HPV-positive women or in HPV-positive CIN2+/3+ cases. HPV16 and HPV33 carried the highest risk, while HPV73 and 26 carried the least risk for CIN2+/3+. Based on the immediate CIN2+/3+ risk of specific HPV genotype, 18 HPVs were divided into three risk-stratified groups. Only women infected with HPVs included in group A were necessary for immediate colposcopy. Compared with conventional strategy, this new risk-based strategy not only had higher specificity (CIN2+:
conclusionsA new triage strategy for ASC-US women was successfully constructed based on CIN2+/3+ risks of 14 high-risk and 4 intermediate-risk HPVs, which could significantly reduce unnecessary colposcopies.
