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

backgroundThe association of Helicobacter pylori-negative gastritis with lymphoid follicles (LFs) in children is still unclear. Therefore, we aimed to investigate the natural history and significance of H. pylori-negative gastritis with LFs in children.

methodsWe identified children with histologically proven H. pylori-negative gastritis with LFs between June 2014 and January 2017. The children were invited for a follow-up examination. The clinical, endoscopic, and histological findings of the index esophagogastroduodenoscopy (EGD) were revised and compared to the follow-up findings.

resultsA total of 754 children underwent EGD. Among the 48 children diagnosed with H. pylori-negative gastritis, 17 (35.41%) had gastric LFs. Eight agreed to participate in the study. The mean follow-up was 25.58 ± 4.52 (range, 20.53-35.73) months. Three children still had histologic findings of chronic gastritis with LFs. Four children had resolution of the gastritis but still had LFs, and 1 patient had resolution of both the gastritis and LFs.

conclusionLFs were still present in children with H. pylori-negative gastritis after a mean follow-up of 2 years, and in some children, despite resolution of the gastritis. Therefore, this histological finding might be a non-pathological feature in children and does not need any contribution or follow-up.
