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

Infection with the human papillomaviruses (HPV) often involves the epigenetic modification of the host genome. Despite its prevalence among the population, host genome methylation in HPV-induced warts is not clearly understood. In this study, genome-wide methylation profiling was carried out on paired healthy skin and wart samples in order to investigate the effects that benign HPV infection has on gene methylation status. To overcome this gap in knowledge, paired wart (n = 12) and normal skin (n = 12) samples were obtained from Arab males in order to perform DNA extraction and subsequent genome-wide methylation profiling on the Infinium Methylation EPIC Bead Chip microarray. Analysis of differential methylation revealed a clear pattern of discrimination between the wart and normal skin samples. In warts, the most differentially methylated (DM) genes included long non-coding RNAs (
