Nativity and racial/ethnic differences in HPV infection among U.S. adults, NHANES 2007-2016.
Article in Frontiers in public health, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
Introduction: Although Human Papillomavirus (HPV) is the most common sexually transmitted infection globally, data on the rate of infection among immigrant populations in the U.S. is limited This study examined changes in HPV infection prevalence overtime by foreign-born status, sex, and race/ethnicity, as well as race/ethnic differences in HPV infection among foreign-born individuals. Methods: The 2007-2016 National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (NHANES) data on adults, 18-34 years (N = 4,523) were analyzed. The outcome measures included any HPV infection and vaccine-type infection. Independent measures were foreign-birth status, sex, and race/ethnicity. Differences in HPV infection prevalence were assessed using chi-square test, and multivariate binary logistic regression analyses were used to examine the relationship between race/ethnicity and HPV infection among foreign-born individuals. Results: Overall prevalence of any HPV infection was 43% and vaccine-type HPV infection was 8%. Foreign-born individuals had significantly lower HPV infection, vaccine-type infection, and vaccination initiation rates compared to US-born adults (p < 0.001). Among foreign-born adults, the odds of HPV infection were higher for Black individuals compared to White individuals (aOR = 3.38; 95% CI: 1.3-8.6), after adjusting for survey cycle, sociodemographic covariates and sexual partners; and also higher among Hispanic females (aOR = 2.99; 95% CI: 1.26-7.11) and Black females (aOR = 5.27; 95% CI: 1.51-18.41) compared to White females. No significant associations were observed among foreign-born males. Discussion: The implementation of public health measures to increase vaccination rates, which can effectively prevent HPV infections, should target foreign-born Black and Hispanic adults.
