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.

BACKGROUND/

aimMany studies have investigated risk factors other than antibiotic resistance linked to

methodsThis study included 150 patients diagnosed with

resultsOur results revealed that eradication was successful in 105 (70%) patients and failed in 45 (30%) patients. The mean 25[OH]D level was significantly lower in the eradication failure group compared to the successful treatment group (14.7 ± 4.5

conclusionsOur results demonstrated that 25-OH vitamin D deficiency may be considered a risk factor related to eradication failure of
