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

BACKGROUND AND

aimsChemokine CXC ligand 13 (CXCL13) and CXC receptor type 5 (CXCR5) are constitutively expressed in tertiary lymphoid follicles where the CXCL13/CXCR5 system regulates B lymphocytes homing. In this study, we sought to examine CXCL13 expression in the H. pylori-infected and -uninfected gastric mucosa and to elucidate the implication in the pathogenesis of HAG in humans.

methodsUsing endoscopic biopsies taken from the gastric antrum of 29 subjects infected with Helicobacter pylori and 22 uninfected subjects, mucosal CXCL13 mRNA and protein levels were measured by real-time polymerase chain reaction and enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay, respectively.

resultsThe CXCL13 expression levels were significantly more elevated in H. pylori-positive patients than uninfected ones. The CXCL13 expression levels correlated with the degree of chronic gastritis and bacterial colonization. Immunohistochemistry and in vitro infection assay showed that CXCL13 was not produced by the gastric epithelium, but the α-smooth muscle antigen expressing mesenchymal cells were the possible source of CXCL13 within H. pylori-infected gastric mucosa. CXCR5 immunostaining was seen in the CD20-positive lymphoid aggregates.

conclusionsThe enhanced induction of CXCL13 may be involved in the pathogenesis of H. pylori-associated gastritis.
