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

objectiveThis study aims to compare, using record-based data, the clearance proportions of the conventional triple management regimen and the levofloxacin-based sequential management regimen in patients treated at Mardan Medical Complex.

methodsA record-based review was conducted from January to June 2024 among adults aged 18 to 65 years with stool antigen-confirmed

resultsAmong 238 patients, clearance was obtained in 62% of those receiving the triple management regimen and 80% of those receiving the sequential management regimen (χ² = 9.03, p = 0.003). The sequential management regimen showed greater clearance and better tolerance.

conclusionSequential management regimen obtained superior clearance proportions and should be preferred in areas with high clarithromycin resistance.
