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

This study aimed to determine the relation between Helicobacter pylori infection and insulin resistance in healthy subjects. In a cross-sectional case control study between January and April 2007, a total of 71 healthy subjects without the exclusion criteria completed the study. Forty-three (60.6%) patients were H. pylori positive and 28 (39.4%) patients were H. pylori negative. Age and body mass index of the patients were not significantly different between the two groups (32.2 +/- 14.2 vs. 33 +/- 8.05 years and 23.15 +/- 4.5 vs. 24.04 +/- 3.2 kg/m(2), respectively). H-pylori-positive patients had significantly higher HOMA-IR level compared to H-pylori-negative patients (3.54 +/- 2.2 vs. 2.46 +/- 1.9, respectively) (P < 0.05). Fasting serum insulin level was significantly higher in the H-pylori-positive group compared with the H-pylori-negative group (19.41 +/- 3.08 vs. 16.57 +/- 2.02 microU/ml, respectively) (P < 0.05). Our findings suggest recognition of H. pylori infection as a risk factor for insulin resistance.
