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

This study characterized compositional shifts in cervical microbiota across disease stages from benign conditions through cervical intraepithelial neoplasia (CIN) to cervical cancer (CC) and investigated interactions with high-risk HPV (hr-HPV) infection using species-resolution profiling to identify severity-associated biomarkers. Cervical exfoliated epithelial cells from 50 patients (eight normal/CIN1, 15 CIN2, 19 CIN3, 5 CC) were analyzed using Low-Coverage Whole Genome Sequencing combined with the Ultrasensitive Chromosomal Aneuploidy Detector (UCAD), a technology featuring a two-step normalization framework that systematically converts raw microbial reads into statistically validated abundance deviations. This enables quantitative identification of pathologically relevant microbiota through cohort-wide Z-score benchmarking. Microbial diversity, differential biomarkers, and HPV-microbiota interactions were assessed using Kruskal-Wallis tests, LEfSe, and Random Forest modeling. Results revealed progressive
