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

aimTo elucidate the influences of H pylori infection on oral iron treatment for iron deficiency anemia (IDA).

methodsA total of 86 patients were divided into two groups: group A, receiving ferrous succinate combined with triple therapy for H pylori eradication, and group B (control), treated with ferrous succinate only. During treatment of IDA, dynamic changes in hemoglobin (Hb) level, mean corpuscular volume (MCV), mean corpuscular hemoglobin (MCH), serum iron (SI), and serum ferritin (SF) were compared between the groups.

resultsHb was slightly higher in group A at d 14 after the start of triple therapy for H pylori eradication (P > 0.05). After the therapy, the increase of Hb in group A became significantly faster than that in group B (P < 0.05). At d 56, the mean Hb in group A returned to the normal level, however, in group B, it was lower than that in group A (P < 0.05) although it had also increased compared with that before oral iron treatment. The MCV and MCH in group A recovered to the normal level, and were much higher than those in group B (P < 0.05) at d 21. In Group B, the MCV and MCH remained at lower than normal levels until d 42 after the start of therapy. And then, they reached a plateau in both groups and the differences disappeared (P > 0.05). The SF in group A was higher than that in group B (P < 0.05) 28 d after the treatment and its improvement was quicker in group A (P < 0.05) , and the difference between the two groups was even more significant (P < 0.01) at d 56. The SI in group A was higher than that in group B (P < 0.05) at d 14 and this persisted until d 56 when the follow-up of this research was finished.

conclusionTreatment of H pylori can enhance the efficacy of ferrous succinate therapy in IDA patients with H pylori-positive chronic gastritis.
