An epidemiologic study on the correlation between oral Helicobacter pylori and gastric H. pylori.
Article in Current microbiology, 2009. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 27 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled 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.
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
The current study was conducted to determine the prevalence of Helicobacter pylori in the oral cavity of a Chinese population. Nested polymerase chain reaction (PCR) was used to investigate whether individuals with oral H. pylori show more possibility of gastric infection and to examine the relationship between gastric H. pylori infection and the presence of the bacteria in the oral cavity. A total of 443 dyspeptic patients participated in the study. Gastric H. pylori infection was detected by the rapid urease test and histology with Giemsa staining, PCR, or smear examination, whereas the presence of the bacteria in the oral cavity was observed by nested PCR from dental plaque. Relevant periodontal and dental parameters were recorded in the process of oral examination. Of the 443 study patients, oral H. pylori was found in the dental plaque of 263 (59.4%) and the stomach of 273 (61.6%). Additionally, in all four age groups, the prevalence of gastric infection was significantly higher among the patients with positive tests for H. pylori in their dental plaque than in the patients with no H. pylori in their dental plaque (P < 0.05). The oral cavity may be a potential reservoir for H. pylori, and the prevalence of oral H. pylori approximated that of gastric H. pylori in the studied population. Furthermore, a close relationship may exist between H. pylori in the oral cavity and bacteria in the stomach or gastric infection, and dyspeptic patients with gastric infection are more likely to harbor H. pylori in their oral cavity.
