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

The investigation of perinatal transmission of HPV is vital for early screening of cervical/oral cancers. Here, transmission of HPV from the pregnant women to their infants was studied. p53 and Bcl-2 expressions and their correlations with HPV infection were examined. HPV infection was detected in the cervical and oral swabs of 135 mother-baby pairs employing both PCR and HC-II methods. 1 year follow-up with an interim visit at 3 months for mothers and 6 months for babies was performed. Immunocytochemistry of p53 and Bcl-2 using the streptavidin-biotin peroxidase method was performed. Prevalence of HPV infection in the mothers was 28.14%, (38/135) and 30.37% (41/135) determined by the PCR and HC-II methods respectively. HPV 16 and/or 18 was identified in 81.57% (31/38) and 82.92% (34/41) of the HPV + women estimated by PCR and HC-II methods respectively. Prevalence rate of HPV 16 among the HPV + pregnant women was 63.15% (24/38) and 65.85% (27/41) determined by PCR and HC-II methods respectively. The frequency of perinatal transmission was 21.05% (8/38) and 21.95% (9/41) determined by PCR and HC-II methods respectively at birth. The HPV + infants in the follow up study cleared the infection within 6 weeks. An abnormal nuclear expression of p53 and cytoplasmic expression of Bcl-2 were observed in the HPV + mother-baby pairs. Cesarean section did not protect the infants against perinatal HPV transmission. The detection of p53 and Bcl-2 proteins in the HPV + mother-baby pairs suggests that these biomarkers may be important in the early screening of oral/cervix cancers in positive cases.
