Helicobacter pylori in allergic and non-allergic rhinitis does play a protective or causative role?
Observational study in European archives of oto-rhino-laryngology : official journal of the European Federation of Oto-Rhino-Laryngological Societies (EUFOS) : affiliated with the German Society for Oto-Rhino-Laryngology - Head and Neck Surgery, 2020. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled 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.
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
purposeMany studies have investigated the effect of Helicobacter pylori (H. pylori) colonization on the development of allergic diseases, but with conflicting results. The purpose of this cross-sectional observation study is to estimate H. pylori prevalence in allergic and nonallergic nasal conditions and compare with normal population.
methods274 patients were tested for H. pylori with stool antigen test. Patients were compared with the control group for H. pylori positivity rates after they were categorized according to their primary diagnoses as mite allergy, pollen allergy, mite and pollen allergy, and non-allergic rhinitis with eosinophilic syndrome (NARES). Results were also classified according to age.
resultsThe number of H. pylori-positive patients with mite allergy, mite and pollen allergy, and NARES were significantly higher than the control group in sadults. The percentages of patients in the pediatric group who had mite allergy, pollen allergy, mite and pollen allergy, or NARES were not significantly different when compared to the control group.
conclusionForthcoming studies would undoubtedly evaluate of the profits of treating allergic nasal conditions by treating the aforementioned bacterial infection.
