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

backgroundHelicobacter pylori (H. pylori) is associated with chronic gastritis and gastric carcinogenesis. The effects of nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs), which exert chemopreventive effects on several cancers, on H. pylori-induced gastritis remain unknown. We investigated the effects of NSAIDs on gastric inflammation and the kinetics of gastric epithelial cells in H. pylori-induced gastritis.

methodsPatients with rheumatoid arthritis or osteoarthritis who took NSAIDs for more than 1 month and complained of dyspeptic symptoms were recruited for this study. Patients not on any NSAIDs were included as non-NSAID user controls. All patients underwent diagnostic testing for H. pylori infection, esophagogastroduodenoscopy, and gastric biopsies. Neutrophil infiltration into gastric mucosa, expression of inducible nitric oxide synthase (iNOS), and apoptosis and proliferation of gastric epithelial cells were evaluated by immunohistochemistry. In an in vitro study, the effects of NSAIDs on production of interleukin (IL)-8 induced by H. pylori in a gastric epithelial cell line (AGS) were determined.

resultsNumbers of neutrophils infiltrating the gastric mucosa, iNOS-expressing inflammatory cells and apoptotic cells, and proliferating cells in gastric epithelium were higher in H. pylori-positive groups than H. pylori-negative groups. Among H. pyloripositive groups, these parameters were lower in NSAID users than in non-NSAID users. NSAIDs inhibited the production of IL-8 induced by H. pylori in AGS cells.

conclusionsThese findings suggest that long-term use of NSAIDs normalizes the kinetics of gastric epithelial cells in patients with H. pylori infection by attenuating gastric mucosal inflammation, which may result in prevention of the gastric carcinogenesis associated with H. pylori infection.
