Associations of non-HPV genital pathogen detection with HPV positivity and cervical findings in women undergoing screening in Xinjiang, China: a retrospective cross-sectional study.
Article in Frontiers in medicine, 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
This study examines the associations between various non-HPV genital tract pathogens-including Chlamydia trachomatis (CT), Neisseria gonorrhoeae (NG), Ureaplasma urealyticum (Uuu), Ureaplasma parvum (Uup1, Uup3, Uup6, Uup14), Mycoplasma hominis (MH), Mycoplasma genitalium (MG), and Herpes simplex virus type II (HSV-2)-and HPV positivity and cervical abnormalities. Furthermore, it examines the co-detection patterns of these pathogens and human papillomavirus (HPV) in relation to cervical cytological and histopathological findings. A retrospective cross-sectional study was conducted involving 154 HPV-positive women and 193 HPV-negative women who underwent cervical cancer screening at our gynecology outpatient clinic during the study period. All participants underwent multiplex genetic testing for cervical pathogens. The six most prevalent HPV subtypes identified were HPV16, 53, 52, 58, 51, and 33. Detection of Uuu, Uup1, Uup6, MH, and CT was significantly associated with HPV positivity. In conclusion, selected non-HPV genital pathogens were associated with HPV positivity and concurrent cervical cytological abnormalities, whereas no significant association was identified with histopathologically confirmed cervical SILs among HPV-positive women.
