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

introduction

aimWe examined whether there is a relationship between HP positivity and gastritis, mean platelet volume (MPV), and platelet level. MATERIAL AND

methodsA total of 309 patients who presented to the Paediatric Gastroenterology Polyclinic with dyspeptic complaints, who received upper gastrointestinal endoscopy, and whose gastric biopsies were carried out were included in the present study. MPVs, thrombocyte, presence of HP, and histopathological presence of gastritis in the patients were examined. The MPV and thrombocyte values were compared between the patients who were HP positive and negative, and between the cases who had and who did not have gastritis.

resultsA total of 36% of the cases who were included in the present study were HP(-), and 64% were HP(+). No gastritis was detected in 22% of the cases. No significant differences were detected between the HP(+) and HP(-) cases in terms of MPV values. The platelet values were determined to be low at a significant level in the HP(+) group, although no significant differences were detected between all the cases who had and who did not have gastritis in terms of MPV.

conclusionsA weak relation was determined between the HP and MPV and platelet values. Although no relations were detected between the presence of gastritis or its severity and MPV, a weak relation was detected between the presence of gastritis and platelet values.
