The validation of the Helicobacter pylori CagA typing by immunohistochemistry: nationwide application in Indonesia.
Article in Acta histochemica, 2020. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 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
We aimed to validate 2 types of antibodies, anti-CagA antibody and anti-East Asian CagA specific antibody (α-EAS antibody) for the determination of CagA status in Indonesia. We also confirmed the performance of α-EAS antibody for the detection of East Asian-type CagA H. pylori. Immunohistochemistry was performed using anti-CagA antibody and α-EAS antibody on gastric biopsy specimens from a total of 967 Indonesian patients. Diagnostic values of immunohistochemistry were evaluated with PCR-based sequencing as gold standard. Anti-CagA antibody had high sensitivity, specificity, and accuracy (87.0 %, 100 %, and 98.8 %, respectively) for determining CagA status. The α-EAS antibody was not suitable for the purpose of CagA status determination, as it had a low sensitivity (23.9 %). High specificity (97.6 %) but low sensitivity (41.2 %) and accuracy (66.3 %) was observed in α-EAS antibody to detect East Asian-type CagA. Patients with positive result of immunohistochemistry using anti-CagA antibody had significantly higher monocyte infiltration score in antrum (P < 0.001) and corpus (P = 0.009). In conclusion, the anti-CagA antibody is still suitable to be used in Indonesia for determining the CagA status, whilst the α-EAS antibody was not appropriate to discriminate between East Asian-type and non-East Asian-type CagA in Indonesia.
