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) CagA protein plays an important role in the clinical outcome of gastritis treatment. Tyrosine phosphorylated Glu-Pro-Ile-Tyr-Ala motif in CagA (CagA-P) plays a critical role in the morphological transformation of cells.

aimWe examine the relationship between serum titer of anti-CagA-P antibody and gastric inflammation as well as the status of the CagA-P expression in gastric mucosa.

methodsFasting sera from 127 dyspeptic patients were collected, and anti-CagA-P antibody was evaluated. Gastric biopsy specimens were collected and histological gastritis was evaluated. We investigate the expression of CagA-P in human gastric mucosa by Western blotting and immunohistochemistry.

resultsThe titers of anti-CagA-P antibodies in the sera of H. pylori (+) patients were significantly higher than those of H. pylori (-) patients (P < 0.001). In 107 H. pylori (+) patients, anti-CagA-P titer was statistically higher in patients with high gastritis scores in the corpus than in those with low scores (P < 0.05). CagA-P expression was detected in the foveolar epithelium of the H. pylori infected gastric mucosa.

conclusionCagA-P is an antigen-peptide against the host, and serum titer of anti-CagA-P antibody may be a new marker for gastritis in the corpus.
