Helicobacter pylori infection in children: an overview of diagnostic methods.
Review in European journal of clinical microbiology & infectious diseases : official publication of the European Society of Clinical Microbiology, 2019. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 29 papers.
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
Children differ from adults regarding Helicobacter pylori (H. pylori) infection in many terms. H. pylori infection represents a key factor in the pathogenesis of duodenal ulcer and chronic gastritis in children. H. pylori infection causes some extraintestinal diseases as well as gastrointestinal diseases. Although, among these illnesses in children, symptoms like recurrent abdominal pain are not specific. Moreover, the role of the pathogen in the growth faltering, iron deficiency anemia, and asthma still remains controversial. A reliable method to detect H. pylori infection is a crucial issue, sand is still a matter of active debate. The tests applied for H. pylori diagnosis are grouped as either invasive or non-invasive methods. Invasive methods consist of endoscopic evaluation, the rapid urease test (RUT), histology, and bacterial culture. Non-invasive tests include the urea breath test (UBT), stool antigen test (SAT), serology, and molecular diagnostic approaches. Use of endoscopy is a pre-requisite for all invasive methods and poses difficulties in children as it is a difficult procedure and requires patient's cooperation. For this reason, the non-invasive tests have been commonly used in children, although their accuracy is not very reliable in some cases. Invasive tests may be opted to confirm the diagnosis as and when needed. This review presents the diagnostic tests used to detect H. pylori infection in children.
