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

BACKGROUND AND

aimsGastric acid secretion is downregulated by Helicobacter pylori infection and upregulated after its eradication, but the mechanisms are still unclear. We examined the effects of H pylori eradication on the number of parietal cells and on expression of molecules functioning in acid secretion in the human gastric mucosa.

methodsWe enrolled 111 consecutive men with chronic gastritis induced by H pylori. Biopsy specimens were endoscopically obtained before and 12 weeks after successful eradication of H pylori and parietal cell numbers were counted. mRNA expression levels of H+/K+-adenosine triphosphatase (H+/K+-ATPase), anion exchanger 2, M3 muscarinic receptor, intrinsic factor, and interleukin 1beta were determined with a real time reverse transcriptase-polymerase chain reaction method. The severity of gastric atrophy was evaluated using the serum pepsinogen I/II ratio.

resultsNo significant difference was observed in parietal cell numbers before and after H pylori eradication. Median mRNA expression levels of H+/K+-ATPase in the gastric mucosa increased 250-fold after H pylori eradication accompanied by attenuation of interleukin 1beta. A large increase in H+/K+-ATPase expression was observed even in patients with severe atrophic gastritis. In contrast, fold increases in mRNA expression levels, including intrinsic factor, anion exchanger 2, and M3 muscarinic receptor, after eradication therapy, were limited to 1.4, 2.3, and 2.5 times, respectively.

conclusionsIn the absence of alteration of parietal cell number, gastric H+/K+-ATPase mRNA expression was markedly restored after successful H pylori eradication, suggesting a central role for the restoration of H+/K+-ATPase expression in gastric acid secretion recovery after H pylori eradication.
