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

BACKGROUND AND

objectiveThe intercourse between Esophageal squamous cell carcinoma etc. (ESC) and Celiac disease (CD) is still a complicated subject. The purpose of this research was to define the relationship between CD and ESC, and the factors associated with CD in patients with ESC.

methodsThis research was conducted by Van University Medical Center in Turkey from 2012 to 2016.CD was identified by analyzing duodenal biopsy materials from 63 ESC patients via histopathologic examinations. Serum samples from the patients were also serologically tested to identify CD. A control group was selected from among subjects who underwent gastroduodenoscopy due to dyspepsia. Distinctions between case characteristics were evaluated with chi-square tests and t-tests for categorical and continuous factors, respectively.

resultsOf the 63 study cases, 6 (9.5%) were both histological and serological positive for CD. Of the 290 control group, 8 (2.8%) had histopathological CD and tested positive for celiac antibodies. The patients with ESC had a significantly higher prevalence of CD compared to the dyspeptic patients (p<0.001). In addition, the mean creatinine levels of ESC patients with histopathological-proven CD were higher than those without CD (p=0.026). Furthermore, ESC patients who tested positive for tTg IgA had significantly higher levels of glucose and AST than those who were negative for tTg IgA (p=0.032) and (p=0.008), respectively.

conclusionThe present study demonstrated a statistically significant positive correlation between ESC and CD. Most remarkably, higher creatinine, glucose, and AST levels may predict CD in patients with ESC. These evidences may lead novel approaches for preventing ESC in patients with CD.
