Association of oxidative balance score with Helicobacter pylori infection and mortality among US population.
Article in European journal of nutrition, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 6 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
backgroundAntioxidant and pro-oxidant dietary patterns and lifestyle changes have been considered to play a crucial role in Helicobacter pylori (H. pylori) infection. We conducted this study to investigate the underlying association between oxidative balance score (OBS) and H. pylori infection in the US population.
methodsThis was a cross-sectional study according to data from the National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (1999-2000), and included individuals with complete information about dietary intake and H. pylori serologic testing results. In the present study, we used multivariate logistic regression analysis, smoothed curve fitting, subgroup analyses, and Cox proportional hazards modeling based on demographic and clinical variables to examine the relationship between OBS and H. pylori infection.
resultsA total of 3413 individuals participated in our analysis with an average age of 32.31 years. The prevalence of H. pylori infection in the study population was 29.77%. By performing smooth curve fitting analysis, we observed an approximately linear relationship between OBS and H. pylori infection, indicating that lower OBS was associated with higher risk of H. pylori infection, especially in over 60 years of age and non-Hispanic white populations. All-cause mortality was also found lower in individuals with higher OBS levels.
conclusionIn the US population, increased levels of OBS were associated with a reduced risk of H. pylori infection and decreased all-cause mortality. More and further work is still needed to elucidate the precise mechanism of the association between OBS and H. pylori infection.
