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 and Purpose: Chronic atrophic gastritis (CAG), affecting approximately 20-30% in high-risk populations, contributes to significant morbidity and mortality due to its progression to gastric cancer. Despite two decades of research into its pathogenesis, the vast body of literature has not yet been systematically mapped. A comprehensive bibliometric analysis mapping the field's evolution, collaborative networks, and knowledge gaps remains lacking. Therefore, we conduct a 20-year bibliometric analysis (2005-2024) of research on the mechanism of CAG to identify seminal works, emerging themes, evaluate global collaboration networks, and highlight translational challenges and opportunities. Patients and Methods: Data were retrieved from the Web of Science Core Collection (WoSCC) spanning from January 1, 2005, to December 31, 2024. Bibliometric analysis was performed using CiteSpace and VOSviewer to analyze publication trends, influential authors and institutions, keyword clusters, and citation bursts. Results: A total of 954 papers were identified, with China leading in publication output (41.51%), followed by the USA (15.20%). The USA demonstrated high centrality in international collaboration. Key journals included WORLD J GASTROENTERO and GASTROENTEROLOGY. Prolific authors such as Liu Yuetao and co-cited authors like CORREA P were identified. Keyword analysis revealed "Helicobacter pylori" as the most prominent term, with clusters focusing on traditional Chinese medicine, macrophage biology, and gastric intestinal metaplasia. Conclusion: The study highlights the significant research output and collaboration in CAG, emphasizing the importance of interdisciplinary approaches and international partnerships. Future research should focus on integrating traditional knowledge with modern mechanistic studies and addressing emerging themes such as microbiome dysbiosis and precision medicine.
