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

backgroundIt is clear that Helicobacter pylori (H. pylori) is a spiral bacterium that infects human and causes gastritis and peptic ulcer. The aim of this study was to determine the relationship between H .pylori infection and the iron status of the body.

methodsThis study was conducted in Shahid Beheshti Hospital of Babol University of Medical Sciences, Babol, Iran from August 2007 to July 2008. The study group consisted of 35 patients with H. pylori and 35 matched healthy subjects as the control group. The members of both groups were enrolled in the study voluntarily. Serum iron and total iron- binding capacity were measured by Darman-kav Standard kit. Ferritin was measured by Padtan-e-Elm Standard kit. The Collected data were analyzed by SPSS version 16. p-value of <0.05 was considered significant.

resultsThe serum iron and total iron-binding capacity in H. pylori positive group were lower than in the control group (108.67±31.26 vs. 110.92±28.45 µg/dL, p=0.578) and (327.88±81.39 vs. 342.51±79.45 µg/dL, p=0.153) respectively. The mean of ferritin was significantly lower in H.pylori positive group (210.51±132.01 ng/ml, p=0.047) than H.pylori negative group (265.03±170.79 ng/mL, p=0.047).

conclusionThe results of the present study show that serum iron and total iron binding capacity in H.pylori infected group was lower than the control group. H.pylori may impair iron metabolism. It is possible that H.pylori may both directly compete with the host for available iron by impairing its uptake.
