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

Since the 2020 Korean guidelines for Helicobacter pylori treatment, clarithromycin resistance rates have risen from 17.8% to 33.3%, dual-priming oligonucleotide-based polymerase chain reaction-guided tailored therapy has been adopted, and potassium-competitive acid blockers (P-CABs) have become available. This fourth revision addressed these changes. Nine key questions were addressed through systematic review and meta-analysis. Thirteen recommendations were evaluated using a modified Delphi process involving 64 experts. Twelve recommendations achieved a first-round consensus; one required revision and achieved 73.9% agreement. Key changes included: 1) a dual-pillar strategy of tailored therapy and empirical quadruple therapy; 2) restricted use of empirical clarithromycin-based triple therapy under specific conditions; 3) removal of sequential therapy; 4) use of P-CABs as alternatives to proton pump inhibitors; 5) expansion of eradication indications to include gastric cancer prevention in H. pylori gastritis and regression of hyperplastic polyps ≤10 mm; and 6) positioning of bismuth quadruple therapy as a conditionally recommended first-line empirical option, with preference for reservation as salvage therapy, and introduction of modified bismuth quadruple therapy (addition of bismuth to conventional regimens) as an additional first-line empirical option. The revised guidelines provide updated evidence-based recommendations for the diagnosis and treatment of H. pylori infection, reflecting the rapidly changing antibiotic resistance landscape and the introduction of new diagnostic and therapeutic tools in Korea. These guidelines aim to assist clinicians, patients, policymakers, and medical educators in optimizing H. pylori management. They may differ from the current medical insurance standards and will be further revised based on emerging evidence.
