The Helicobacter pylori eradication in the group receiving standard -dose and group continue taking amoxicillin for 4 weeks; a clinical trial study.

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.
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
aimThe aim of this study was to evaluate the Helicobacter pylori eradication in the group receiving standard -dose twice a day for two weeks and continue taking amoxicillin for 4 weeks.
backgroundHelicobacter pylori is the major etiological cause of chronic gastritis, gastric and duodenal ulcers, gastric cancer and lymphoma. Therefore, patients should be treated after diagnosis of H. pylori infection. PATIENTS AND
methodsA total of 66 consecutive patients with rapid urease test during endoscopy or biopsy positive for H. pylori were enrolled in this clinical trial study during 2013-2014. Patients were divided randomly into two groups. Group A (standard dose) received omeprazole (20 mg), amoxicillin (1 g), and clarithromycin (500 mg), all two times a day for two weeks. Group B received standard dose like group A and in patients with H.pylori infection amoxicillin were continued for 4 weeks. After completion of treatment, patients did not receive any treatment for a month and then stool antigen was performed to evaluate the H.pylori.
resultsThe rate of successful HP eradication was significantly higher in group A (90.9% V.s 63.6%; p=0.017). Inflation and bitter mouth were found in 8 and 13 patients in group A and 7 and 9 patients in group B, respectively. The incidence of adverse effects was the same (p=0.437).
conclusionIncreased duration of antibiotic therapy to four weeks significantly raises the rate of successful HP eradication with standard triple therapy without significant increase in adverse effects.
