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

introductionAlthough controversial, clinicians generally consider patients who present with gastric ulcer to have an increased risk of gastric cancer, while the risk for patients with duodenal ulcer is reduced in comparison with that of the general population. Infection with Helicobacter pylori and the use of non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) are the major causes for peptic ulcers, but their roles in relation to the risk of gastric cancer in patients with peptic ulcer may be different. METHODS AND

resultsThis article reviewed existing literature to assess our understanding of the risk of gastric cancer in patients with gastric and duodenal ulcers more than 25 years after the discovery of H. pylori and also examined whether gastric ulcers induced by NSAID carry a lower risk of gastric cancer as compared to those induced by H. pylori infection or other causes.
