Article in International journal of women's health, 2026. 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
Objective: To analyze Human Papillomavirus (HPV) infection status and its association with cervical lesions among women of different ethnic groups in the Yili region (2021-2023), providing evidence for local cervical cancer prevention. Methods: Retrospective analysis of 13,915 women who underwent HPV genotyping and ThinPrep cytologic testing (TCT) at three hospitals. Among them, 1,240 with abnormal screening or clinical symptoms received cervical biopsy. SPSS 27.0 was used for statistical analysis. Results: Overall HPV infection rate was 22.0% (3,068/13,915), with high-risk (HR-HPV) accounting for 87.2%. Age-specific rates showed a U-shaped pattern: highest in ≤24 years (39.3%), a second peak at 55-64 years (27.9%), lowest at 45-54 years (19.8%) (P<0.001). Common genotypes: HPV16, 52, 42, 53, 51, 58. Among 7,490 women with ethnicity data, Kazakh women had the highest HPV infection rate (34.6%) and HR-HPV rate (30.1%), significantly higher than Han (27.7%), Uyghur (20.4%), and Hui (24.2%) (P<0.001). However, after age adjustment, the difference was no longer statistically significant. Among 1,240 biopsy cases, HPV infection rates increased with lesion severity: chronic cervicitis (79.5%), cervical intraepithelial neoplasia (CIN) 1 (85.4%), CIN2 (97.3%), CIN3 (96.8%), cervical cancer (92.7%) (P<0.001). HPV16 was the most common genotype in CIN2+ lesions, followed by HPV52 and HPV58. Conclusion: HPV infection rate in Yili region is high (22.0%), predominantly HR-HPV (87.2%). The infection rate among Kazakh women was the highest, but the analysis adjusted by age showed no statistically significant difference. This suggests that they might be the key population for cervical cancer screening and prevention, but more evidence is needed to confirm this. Furthermore, hospital-based sampling may limit generalizability.
