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

aimsIntestinal metaplasia is considered to be a precursor lesion in both Barrett's and intestinal-type gastric cancer. The aim was to clarify the differences in molecular pathology between specialized intestinal metaplasia (SIM) in Barrett's oesophagus (BO), cardiac (CIM) and gastric intestinal metaplasia (GIM). METHODS AND

resultsEighty-eight SIM cases with BO, 30 CIM cases and 52 GIM cases in patients with or without Helicobacter pylori infectionwere analysed for genetic instability and Das-1. Microsatellite instability and a loss of heterozygosity were evaluated at five microsatellite loci. The incidence of genetic instability was 55.7% in SIM, 40.0% in CIM and 23.1% in GIM, revealing a significant difference between SIM and GIM (P < 0.0005). For each microsatellite marker analysed, there were obvious differences in frequency among the three conditions. Das-1 reactivity was significantly higher in SIM than in CIM or GIM (P < 0.0001, both). Interestingly, both genetic instability and Das-1 reactivity in SIM showed a significantly higher incidence in patients with H. pylori infection than in those without (P < 0.005 and P < 0.01, respectively).

conclusionsSIM is distinct from CIM and GIM, and the pathogenesis of SIM, like that of GIM, is associated to some degree with H. pylori infection in a Japanese population.
