1 · What the graph read from it

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.

2 · The registry

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

methodsThe patients with gastrointestinal disorders referred to Shahid-Beheshti Hospital in Qom, Iran, were enrolled in this study. Eleven biopsies per patient were collected and used for culture, pathology, and rapid urease tests. Based on endoscopic and pathological findings, patients were separated into three groups: GC, PUD, and NUD. Colonies suspected of H. pylori were initially investigated using conventional evaluations and then confirmed by PCR assay. Also, the RT-qPCR method was used to evaluate the expression of target genes, including cagA, dupA, sabA, babA, and iceA1 in isolated strains.

resultsOne hundred and seventy-seven patients, including 31 GC, 55 PUD, and 91 NUD, were included in this study. Among the enrolled patients, 29 patients were positive for H. pylori based on three evaluation methods. The expression of bacterial cagA, dupA, and babA genes in the GC patients was statistically higher than in the NUD group. The expression of the sabA gene in the strain isolated from the GC group was lower than in the control group. No significant difference was observed between the GC group and the control group regarding the iceA1 gene.
