Comparable genetic alteration profiles between gastric cancers with current and past Helicobacter pylori infection.
Article in Scientific reports, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 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
Gastric cancers can develop even after Helicobacter pylori (H. pylori) eradication in 0.2-2.9% cases per year. Since H. pylori is reported to directly activate or inactivate cancer-related pathways, molecular profiles of gastric cancers with current and past H. pylori infection may be different. Here, we aimed to analyze whether profiles of point mutation and gene amplification are different between the two groups. Current or past infection by H. pylori was determined by positive or negative amplification of H. pylori jhpr3 gene by PCR, and past infection was established by the presence of endoscopic atrophy. Among the 90 gastric cancers analyzed, 55 were with current infection, and 35 were with past infection. Target sequencing of 46 cancer-related genes revealed that 47 gastric cancers had 68 point mutations of 15 different genes, such as TP53 (36%), KRAS (4%), and PIK3CA (4%) and that gene amplification was present for ERBB2, KRAS, PIK3CA, and MET among the 26 genes assessed for copy number alterations. Gastric cancers with current and past infection had similar frequencies of TP53 mutations (38% and 31%, respectively; p = 0.652) and oncogene activation (20% and 29%, respectively; p = 0.444). Gastric cancers with current and past infection had comparable profiles of genetic alterations.
