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

Proton pump inhibitors (PPIs) are the most widely used drugs for treatment of gastroesophageal reflux disease. However, approximately 20% of patients with reflux esophagitis and 40% of those with nonerosive reflux diseases complain of troublesome symptoms, even during treatment with PPIs. In patients with reflux esophagitis, dose escalation and co-administration with a histamine H(2)-receptor antagonist are potential approaches, since the major cause of PPI resistance is incomplete suppression of gastric acid secretion. On the other hand, for patients with nonerosive reflux disease, switching from PPIs to pain modulators is often necessary for improvement of symptoms, since 25% of patients with nonerosive reflux disease have symptoms not caused by gastroesophageal acid reflux. Therapeutic approaches for PPI-resistant patients with reflux esophagitis and nonerosive reflux diseases are considered according to pathogenesis.
