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

We aimed at investigating insulin resistance in children with Helicobacter pylori (H. pylori) infection. Fasting serum insulin and glucose levels were determined in 31 children with H. pylori (+) (H. pylori-infected group, 20 girls and 11 boys, median age 12 yr, range 6-17) and 29 H. pylori (-) (control group, 18 girls and 11 boys, median age 13 yr, range 5-16). Insulin resistance was assessed using homeostasis model assessment of insulin resistance (HOMA-IR) score. Fasting serum glucose levels did not differ significantly between H. pylori (+) and (-) children. Both HOMA-IR score and serum insulin levels were significantly higher in H. pylori-infected compared to control children. The findings of the present study suggested that there is a certain relation between H. pylori infection and insulin resistance in children.
