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

Background: Research on human papillomavirus (HPV) vaccination willingness and behavior among patients with cervical intraepithelial neoplasia (CIN) remains limited, although such evidence is essential for improving disease prevention. Methods: A knowledge, attitude, practice (KAP) questionnaire was administered to CIN patients aged 20-60 years in Gansu Province, China to explore HPV vaccine willingness and its influencing factors. Logistic regression identified demographic factors associated with vaccination willingness, including patients >45 years. Mediation analysis tested whether knowledge indirectly influenced willingness through attitude and practice. This study also compared the differences between willingness and actual behavior, and restricted cubic splines (RCS) assessed the age-behavior relationship. Results: Among 1,012 patients, 87.45% reported willingness to receive HPV vaccination, while only 27.96% had been vaccinated. Logistic regression showed that patients who were younger, lived in urban areas, had higher education and income, reported frequent sexual activity (>4 times/month), had more sexual partners, and achieved higher KAP scores demonstrated greater willingness (all Conclusion: Patients showed strong willingness to vaccinate, but the actual vaccination proportion was modest. Misconceptions that infection blocks vaccination may obscure the path to protection. It is recommended to highlight the role of HPV vaccination in preventing recurrence among older HSIL patients and extend the appropriate age of vaccination.
