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

backgroundOur previous study in a Japanese population showed elevated Helicobacter pylori seropositivity in those with tumor necrosis factor (TNF) A -1031TT and -857TT genotypes. This study examined the associations of this seropositivity and serum pepsinogen (PG) levels with these genotypes in Japanese Brazilians.

methodsThe subjects were 963 individuals (399 males and 564 females), aged 33 to 69 years, from four regions (Sao Paulo, Curitiba, Mogi das Cruzes, and Mirandopolis) in Brazil. Gastric atrophy was evaluated with serum pepsinogens (PGI < 70 ng/dl and PGI/II < 3), and TNF T-1031C and C-857T were genotyped by polymerase chain reaction with confronting two-pair primers (PCR-CTPP).

resultsThe frequency of TNF-A T-1031C was 68.4% TT, 28.4% TC, and 3.3% CC, and that of C-857T was 64.5% CC, 31.7% CT, and 3.8% TT, whose distributions were in Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium. No significant associations of the genotypes with H. pylori seropositivity or gastric atrophy were found. However, male participants with TNF-A -1031CC and -857CC showed the lowest seropositivity (43.8% out of 16), and males with TNF-A -1031TT and -857TT showed the highest (61.5% out of 13).

conclusionThis study demonstrated that the associations between H. pylori seropositivity and TNF-A genotypes were not marked for Japanese Brazilians. The genotypes were not associated with gastric atrophy among the seropositive individuals.
