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

A close relationship exists between nodular gastritis and Helicobacter pylori infection in children. The pathogenesis and optimal management of nodular gastritis in adults, however, are unclear. This study describes the clinicopathologic features of nodular gastritis in adults and correlates treatment with outcome. Of 97,262 adult patients who underwent endoscopy, 187 (0.19%) were diagnosed with nodular gastritis, 151 (81%) of whom had dyspepsia. Nodular gastritis predominantly affects young women (49 men and 138 women, mean age, 32.6 years). All 134 patients tested for Helicobacter pylori infection were infected, and 65/66 (98%) had inflammation of both the antrum and the corpus. Twenty-five (13%) had associated lesions (peptic ulcers or cancer). Dyspepsia improved after eradication of Helicobacter pylori infection, but did not improve spontaneously. Nodular gastritis in adults is caused by Helicobacter pylori infection and shows a predilection for females and young adults. Helicobacter pylori eradication decreases symptoms and reduces the risk of peptic ulcers and possibly gastric cancer.
