Review in International journal of hematology, 2006. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 13 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled it.

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

Isolation of the gastric spiral bacterium Helicobacter pylori totally reversed the false dogma that the stomach was sterile. In addition to its causal role in peptic ulceration, the newly identified bacterium has now been implicated in other gastric and even extragastric diseases, including chronic atrophic gastritis, gastric MALT lymphoma, gastric cancer, functional dyspepsia, idiopathic thrombocytopenic purpura (ITP), iron deficiency anemia, chronic urticaria, ischemic heart disease, and others. The majority of the reports are anecdotal, epidemiologic, or eradication studies, but there are also relevant in vitro studies. ITP represents one disease showing a strong link with H pylori infection. There are also accumulating data on the role of H pylori infection in iron deficiency anemia and ischemic heart disease. In summary, the association between H pylori infection and other extragut diseases is still controversial but worthy of further investigation.
