Comparison of Genetic Mutations of Gastric Cancer Diagnosed before or after Helicobacter pylori Eradication and between Differentiated and Undifferentiated Types Using Next-Generation Sequencing.
Article in Digestive diseases (Basel, Switzerland), 2025. 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
introductionGenetic abnormalities specific to post-Helicobacter pylori eradication gastric cancer (GC), especially those associated with undifferentiated post-eradication GC, are unknown. We conducted next-generation sequencing of GC diagnosed either before or after eradication to investigate the carcinogenesis of post-eradication GC.
methodsFive cases of post-eradication differentiated GC [HP(-)-D group], five cases of H. pylori-positive differentiated GC [HP(+)-D group], four cases of post-eradication undifferentiated GC [HP(-)-U group], and six cases of H. pylori-positive undifferentiated GC [HP(+)-U group] underwent analysis. DNA was extracted from tumor samples, and non-tumor samples of all subjects. Next-generation target sequencing was conducted using the Ion AmpliSeq Library Kit 2.0 with the Ion AmpliSeq Cancer Hotspot Panel v2. Next-generation targeted sequencing results of the cancer part were subtracted from the results of the non-cancer part.
resultsThe HP(-)-D group displayed significantly fewer SNPs in hotspot than the other groups (p < 0.01). Definitive DNA mutations were identified by sequencing of cancerous and non-cancerous tissues. 5 of 20 patients had specific somatic mutations, with different TP53 mutations in the HP(+)-D and HP(-)-U groups, CTNNB1 mutations in the HP(+)-U group, and ATM mutations in the HP(+)-U group, but no mutations in the HP(-)-D group.
conclusionSeveral definite genetic mutations involved in GC were observed. Mutations were less frequent in post-eradication differentiated GC. However, because of small number of cases analyzed to identify carcinogenic differences, further analysis with a large number of cases and with strictly grading GC samples is needed.
