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

backgroundTo investigate the possibility that the eradication of

methodsSixty-five successive patients with elevated intraocular pressure (IOP) or glaucoma were included in the study. Serum samples from all subjects were analyzed for the presence of

resultsThere was a significant (p=0.005) reduction in IOP after complete eradication in the intervention group. This value was not significant in control patients (p=0.08). The mean IOP before treatment of glaucoma in the control group was 23.60±2.37 mmHg and after treatment with anti-glaucoma drugs was 14.25±1.48 mmHg on the onset of study, and 13.55±2.01 mmHg after follow up. The mean IOP before treatment of glaucoma in the intervention group was 24.55±3.6 mmHg and after treatment with anti-glaucoma drugs was 15.15±1.8 mmHg, and 14.3±1.6 mmHg after the eradication of H pylori with a drug regimen. However, after the treatment of glaucoma in all patients, the overall comparison of mean IOP differences showed no statistical difference (P=0.65).
