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) infections can cause common warts, which usually resolve spontaneously or become recalcitrant, resistant to multiple treatments. In rare cases, they transform into cutaneous giant horns resulting in the tree-man syndrome (TMS). Defective β-HPVs can cause flat warts in epidermodysplasia verruciformis (EV), a genetic disorder. In typical EV, limited to the skin, the mutated genes are critical for keratinocyte-intrinsic immunity, whereas atypical, syndromic EV involves genes controlling T cells. Inborn errors of immunity due to mutations in distinct genes underlying recalcitrant warts and the α-HPV2‒driven TMS have been identified, all disrupting T-cell immunity. Collectively, these observations attest to the wide phenotypic spectrum of cutaneous infections caused by different HPV types at the intersection of the genetic diversity of the viral and human genomes.
