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

Fundic gland polyps (FGPs) are the most common type of gastric polyps and are frequently discovered incidentally during upper endoscopy. Long-term use of proton pump inhibitors (PPIs) has been associated with an increased risk of developing FGPs. We present a case of PPI-induced FGP in a 78-year-old woman who had been taking omeprazole daily for 15 years and was referred for evaluation of anemia. Gastroscopy revealed innumerable FGPs in the gastric body. Histological analysis demonstrated dilated glands within the fundic mucosa, consistent with FGPs. These polyps are typically small and benign and located in the gastric corpus and fundus. While FGPs are generally non-neoplastic, discontinuation of PPI therapy should be considered on a case-by-case basis. Indications for long-term PPI use should be regularly assessed. Unnecessary PPI therapy should be discontinued when appropriate.
