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

Human papillomavirus (HPV) genotype distribution varies regionally, influencing vaccination and screening strategies. This molecular characterisation study determined HPV prevalence and circulating genotypes among 225 women (≥30 y) attending gynaecological clinics in Karad, Satara district, Maharashtra. HPV DNA was detected in 14 participants (6.2%) using polymerase chain reaction (PCR) and sequencing. Identified genotypes included HPV-6, HPV-59, HPV-66, and HPV-81, indicating circulation of both low-risk and high-risk types. Multiple sexual partners showed the strongest association with HPV infection. These preliminary findings highlight the need for region-specific genotype surveillance to inform prevention strategies.
