Prevalence and Possible Predictors of Helicobacter Pylori Infection Among Adult Patients with Sickle Cell Disease in Ahmadu Bello University Teaching Hospital North-West, Nigeria.
Review in Nigerian medical journal : journal of the Nigeria Medical Association. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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: Helicobacter Pylori Methodology: Adult patients with SCA in Steady State were enrolled after informed consent. Sociodemographic, clinical, and laboratory parameters were documented using a structured questionnaire. Results: The median age of participants was 23(20, 26) years. Most of the participants (56.8%) were from lower socioeconomic classes. Sickle cell painful vaso-occlusive crises and blood transfusion in the previous 12 months were 2(1, 4) and 0(0, 1) respectively. Ninety (53.3%) of the participants had abdominal symptoms. Non-specific abdominal pain was the most common. The median frequency of abdominal pains was 1(0, 2). Conclusion: H. pylori infection is not uncommon among SCA patients. Physicians should be vigilant in SCD patients with multiple abdominal symptoms by screening early and instituting management.
