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

Low-dose aspirin and thienopyridine are associated with gastrointestinal (GI) complications such as petechiae, erosion, ulcer, bleeding, and perforation. The incidence of GI bleeding in aspirin study groups was 0.82 % in the hypertension optimal treatment (HOT) study and 0.76 % in the primary prevention project (PPP) study. On the other hand, the incidence of GI bleeding by endoscopic evaluation was higher than in an observational study. In a study of 187 patients receiving low-dose aspirin for prevention of cardiovascular disease, the prevalence of endoscopically detected GI ulcers was 11 % (95 % CI 6.3-15.1 %). Several risk factors for GI bleeding (history of peptic ulcer or GI bleeding, high aspirin dose, concomitant use of non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs and anti-platelet agents, advanced age and Helicobacter pylori infection) were reported for patients receiving aspirin. Prevention strategies for GI complications induced by anti-platelet agents are treatment with proton pump inhibitors, histamine-2 receptor antagonists, prostaglandin analogs, prostaglandin inducers and H. pylori eradication therapy. Further investigation is necessary to identify the strategies which are suitable for Japan.
