1 · What the graph read from it

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.

2 · The registry

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

purposeRecurrent respiratory papillomatosis (RRP) is associated with low-risk types of human papillomavirus (HPV). With HPV DNA testing, the oral rinse of RRP patients may be a useful liquid biopsy, as previously shown in patients with oropharyngeal cancer.

methodsOral rinse, along with palatine and pharyngeal tonsil swabs, were collected from seven patients with persistent RRP. HPV DNA detection was performed using polymerase chain reaction, followed by genotype identification.

resultsHPV DNA was detected in five of seven oral rinse samples, but not in any palatine or pharyngeal tonsil swabs. HPV6 was identified in four of the five HPV-positive oral rinses, which was consistent with the RRP tissues.

conclusionHPV DNA can be detected in oral rinses from patients with RRP, suggesting the utility of the oral rinse as a liquid biopsy. In contrast, neither the palatine nor the pharyngeal tonsils were reservoirs of HPV in study patients with RRP.
