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

Although gastric cancer formation with H. pylori in Mongolian gerbils was recently reported, the same inoculation procedure did not result in cancer formation in other animals such as mice. Disturbed regulation of apoptosis and cell proliferation are known to link the multistep process of carcinogenesis. The present study is designed to examine the level of gastric epithelial cell apoptosis in Mongolian gerbils colonized with the H. pylori (Sydney strain: SS1) in comparison with that in mice. Mice (C57BL/6) and Mongolian gerbils were orally inoculated with SS1 and the stomachs were examined 9 and 18 months later. MPO activity increased persistently in gerbils, but increased transiently in mice. While the levels of DNA fragmentation, caspase-3 activity, and the number of TUNEL-positive cells increased significantly in mice, such parameters were attenuated in gerbils. On the other hand, the number of PCNA-positive cells increased after SS1 inoculation only in Mongolian gerbils, suggesting the enhancement of cell turnover in H. pylori-colonized gerbils. In conclusion, the SS1-induced increase in gastric mucosal apoptosis observed in mice was attenuated significantly in Mongolian gerbils, suggesting the causative role for the higher incidence of gastric carcinogenesis in this animal.
