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
Aims: This study aimed to investigate the relationship between human papillomavirus (HPV) infection and the development of salivary gland tumour (SGT) by evaluating the expression of p16 and the oncoproteins HPV16-L1 and HPV18-E6 using immunohistochemical (IHC) staining. Additionally, we assess the agreement between these oncoproteins and p16 in diagnosing HPV-infected SGT. Methods: This cross-sectional study included all SGT cases undergoing surgical resection at Hospital Universiti Sains Malaysia (HUSM) and Hospital Raja Perempuan Zainab II (HRPZ) in Malaysia from April 2022 to April 2023. IHC staining was performed on paraffin-embedded tissues at the Pathology Laboratory, HUSM, to evaluate the expression of p16, HPV16-L1, and HPV18-E6 oncoproteins. The clinicopathological data were correlated with the staining results. Results: 49 SGT cases were identified, mainly in middle-aged Malay women, with most tumours originating from the parotid gland. Malignant tumours included mucoepidermoid carcinoma (22.4%), adenoid cystic carcinoma (4.1%), acinic cell carcinoma (4.1%), and adenocarcinoma (2%). Benign tumours primarily consisted of pleomorphic adenoma (49%) and Warthin tumours (16.3%). Positive p16 expression was detected in 67% of cases, while HPV16 and HPV18 were detected in 65% and 90% of tumours, respectively. HPV16-L1 exhibited 75.8% sensitivity and 56.3% specificity, while HPV18-E6 showed 100% sensitivity and 31.2% specificity compared to p16. Conclusion: The study findings suggest a correlation between the presence of high-risk HPV types 16 and 18 and the development of SGT, as evidenced by the overexpression of p16, HPV16-L1, and HPV18-E6 oncoproteins. Both HPV16-L1 and HPV18-E6 tests are acceptable, reliable, and sensitive for detecting high-risk HPV in SGT.
