Prevalence of Gastric Epithelial Tumors in Helicobacter pylori-uninfected Individuals Undergoing a Medical Checkup.
Article in Internal medicine (Tokyo, Japan), 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 5 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
Objective This study investigated the prevalence of gastric epithelial tumor in Helicobacter pylori-uninfected subjects who underwent esophagogastroduodenoscopy (EGD) as part of an annual checkup. Methods A total of 20,540 EGD examinations of H. pylori-uninfected individuals (12,917 men, 7,623 women; mean age 51.5±9.2 years old) were performed between April 2016 and March 2023. The prevalence of gastric epithelial tumor discovery and the size and location of each lesion type were analyzed. Results According to 20,540 examinations, 61 gastric epithelial tumors were endoscopically and histologically diagnosed in 58 of the subjects, with a prevalence rate of 0.28%. These tumors included signet-ring carcinoma (n=10, 0.05%), gastric adenocarcinoma of fundic-gland type (n=10, 0.05%), intestinal-type well-differentiated adenocarcinoma (n=2, 0.01%), and raspberry-type gastric foveolar tumors (n=36, 0.18%). One subject had two intestinal-type well-differentiated adenocarcinomas, and two each had two raspberry-type gastric foveolar tumors. The mean sizes of the signet-ring carcinomas, gastric adenocarcinoma of fundic-gland type, intestinal-type well-differentiated adenocarcinomas, and raspberry-type gastric foveolar tumors were 6.4, 4.7, 5.0, and 3.4 mm, respectively. Each lesion was located at a specific site in the stomach characteristic of its type. Conclusion In the present H. pylori-uninfected subjects, the prevalence of gastric epithelial tumors found on an EGD examination was 0.28%. Endoscopic examination should be performed in H. pylori-uninfected individuals to detect such tumors in characteristic locations.
