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

aimTo compare the efficacy of quadruple and sequential therapy in eradication of

methodThree hundred

resultsSuccessful eradication was achieved in 245 patients. In each group, five patients did not tolerate the regimen and were excluded from analysis. About 29 (20%) patients who received sequential therapy and 21 (14.5%) of the quadruple group tolerated mild side effects (p = 0.21).Per-protocol analysis demonstrated eradication rates of 86.9% for sequential therapy and 82.7% for quadruple therapy (p = 0.26). Results according to the intention to treat analysis were 84 and 79.5% in the sequential and quadruple group respectively. Eradication rate differences were not significant.

conclusionThe success rate of sequential therapy is comparable with quadruple therapy. Sequential therapy due to the short duration and lesser drug usage is a good alternative for eradication of
