Cost-Effectiveness of Screening Helicobacter pylori for Gastric Cancer Prevention: a Systematic Review.
Synthesis in Journal of gastrointestinal cancer, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. It is linked to trial NCT06216639 (EU4Health Project Eurohelican), which is not on this 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.

Abstract
Globally, prevalence of Helicobacter pylori is around 50%, and it has a directly proportional relationship with gastric cancer. Screening and treatment of Helicobacter pylori could reduce gastric cancer by 35%. Drawing on the scarce resources, it is reasonable to use the most cost-effectiveness Helicobacter pylori screening procedure. The purpose of this study was to evaluate Helicobacter pylori screening techniques and to specify the efficient technique from a cost-effectiveness perspective. This systematic review was conducted via searching electronic databases including Scopus, Embase, PubMed, Web of Science, and Cochrane Reviews. Our search retrieved 904 articles, of which, 606 full-text studies have been selected after duplicate removal. Next, the 25 articles were sorted based on eligibility criteria and quality appraisal; eventually, only eight studies have been included for analysis. We reported the incremental cost-effectiveness ratio (ICER) screening compared to non-screening and different screening strategies. Eight studies were identified and retained for the final analysis. In this study, when screening techniques were compared to no-screening, serology screening techniques showed to be cost-effective. The lowest ICER calculated was US$$1230 cost per life-year gained (LYG) and US$1500 cost per quality-adjusted life-year (QALY). However, determining the optimal strategy compared to other strategies was depended on parameters such as context-specific, type of cost, threshold, and perspective, and also, it influenced by the framework of the cost-effectiveness analysis.
