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

objectivesTo compare prevalence and predictors of knowledge that human papillomavirus (HPV) can cause oropharyngeal cancer (OPC) and cervical cancer among U.S. adults. STUDY

designCross-sectional.

methodsUsing Health Information National Trends Survey-5 cycles 1-4 (2017-2020), we estimated weighted prevalence of knowledge that HPV can cause OPC and cervical cancer, overall and by sex. Predictors were identified using logistic regression adjusting for age, sex, race and ethnicity, and education.

resultsFemales vs. males had greater OPC knowledge (22.3 % vs. 17.1 %) [adjusted odds ratio (aOR) = 1.4; 95 % confidence interval (95 % CI) = 1.2-1.6] and cervical cancer knowledge (59.4 % vs. 40.0 %) (aOR = 2.6; 95 % CI = 2.2-3.0). Females with notably greater OPC knowledge were White vs. Black (aOR = 2.0; 95 % CI = 1.5-2.7), and had a college degree or higher vs. high school or less (aOR = 2.8; 95 % CI = 2.1-3.7). Males with greater OPC knowledge had a college degree or higher vs. high school or less (aOR = 3.1; 95 % CI = 2.2-4.4) and visited a provider 1-2 times within the past year (aOR = 1.7; 95 % CI = 1.1-2.6). Females with greater cervical cancer knowledge were White vs. Black (aOR = 2.1; 95 % CI = 1.6-2.6), had a college degree or higher vs. high school or less (aOR = 5.6; 95 % CI = 4.5-6.9), and visited a provider within the past year (aOR = 2.2; 95 % CI = 1.7-2.9). Males with greater cervical cancer knowledge were White vs. Black (aOR = 1.6; 95 % CI = 1.1-2.4), had at least $75,000 vs. $34,999 or less annual income (aOR = 1.8; 95 % CI = 1.3-2.4), had a college degree or higher vs. high school or less (aOR = 4.7; 95 % CI = 3.5-6.2), and visited a provider within the past year (aOR = 1.5; 95 % CI = 1.1-2.2).

conclusionsHPV-related cancer knowledge is limited, especially for OPC. Knowledge disparities exist across many social and healthcare engagement factors, emphasizing need for broader dissemination of HPV education.
