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

Helicobacter pylori is a Gram-negative bacterium that causes chronic gastric inflammation, which can lead to gastric neoplasia. Therefore, early diagnosis of H. pylori infection is crucial for effective treatment and prevention of complications. The aim of this study was to compare the sensitivity and specificity of the STANDARD™ F H. pylori Ag FIA stool antigen test (SD Biosensor) with the LIAISON® Meridian H. pylori SA for the diagnosis of H. pylori infection. A total of 133 stool samples from patients with suspected H. pylori infection were compared using the STANDARD™ F H. pylori Ag FIA stool antigen test (SD Biosensor), based on lateral flow assay, with the LIAISON® Meridian H. pylori SA. Of the 45 positive samples with LIAISON, 44 were also positive while 1 was negative in the STANDARD™ antigen test. However, this discrepant sample showed a chemiluminescence index of 1.18, very close to the cut-off point of 1. On the other hand, of 88 negative samples obtained with LIAISON, 83 were negative and 5 were positive in the STANDARD™ antigen test. Moreover, STANDARD™ F H. pylori Ag FIA assay has shown a sensitivity of 97.8% (95% CI: 88.2-99.9), a specificity of 94.3% (95% CI: 87.2-98.1), a PPV of 83.9% (95% CI: 68.9-92.4) and a NPV of 99.3% ((95% CI: 95.3-99.9). In conclusion, the STANDARD™ F H. pylori Ag FIA (SD Biosensor) on the STANDARD™ F2400 analyser is a highly sensitive, specific and suitable assay for the detection of H. pylori in stool samples.
