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

helicobacter pylori in sleeve gastrectomiesPrevalence & Rate of Complications. Prevalence of Helicobacter pylori has not been established in sleeve gastrectomy specimens and yet initial observations indicate that it is significant. The aim is to determine prevalence of Helicobacter pylori and correlate with rate of post-operative complications. A total of 89 Sleeve gastrectomies were identified. Pathology reports and slides were re-examined. Warthin Starry special stain and clinical history were obtained. 38 cases were Helicobacter pylori positive (44%). 33 (39%) cases initially reported negative for Helicobacter pylori on routine hematoxylin and eosin stained slide; were positive when Warthin starry stain was employed. The presence of neutrophils in tissue was strongly associated with presence of Helicobacter pylori on Warthin stain (p<0.001). Post-operative complications were observed in 8 patients (9%). Complications were not significantly associated with Warthin-Starry special stain status (p=0.98).
