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
Background and Aims: Successful Methods: A parallel double-blind randomized controlled trial was conducted. The diagnosis of Hp infection was made by pathological examination of gastric biopsies. Patients were randomly assigned to two treatment groups: either QC (esomeprazole 80 mg, amoxicillin 2000 mg, clarithromycin 1000 mg, and metronidazole 1000 mg daily) or triple therapy (esomeprazole 80 mg, amoxicillin 2000 mg, and clarithromycin 1000 mg daily in divided doses) for 14 days. The efficacy of the treatment is defined by Hp eradication attested by a negative breath test performed 6 weeks after the completion of treatment. Treatment outcomes were compared using the chi-square test, while binary logistic regression identified predictors of treatment failure. Results: Ninety-two patients were included. Forty-two patients belonged to the QC group and 50 to the TT group. No significant difference was noted between the two groups concerning the rate of Hp eradication either by intention to treat (81% vs. 72% respectively, Conclusion: There was no significant difference in the rate of HP eradication between the QC and the 14-day triple therapy. Neither regimen should be used topically because of their low eradication rates.
