Proton pump inhibitors for prevention of upper and lower gastrointestinal bleeding in patients taking aspirin: a systematic review and meta-analysis.
Synthesis in European journal of clinical pharmacology, 2026. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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.
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
objectivesProton pump inhibitors (PPIs) are recommended for the prevention of aspirin-associated gastrointestinal mucosal injury, but emerging evidence indicates that PPIs may increase the risk of lower gastrointestinal bleeding (LGIB). This meta-analysis aimed to comprehensively evaluate the effects of PPIs on gastrointestinal bleeding (GIB).
methodsMajor electronic databases were searched to identify the studies evaluating the differences between PPIs versus placebo/blank, no-PPI, histamine-2 receptor antagonists (H
resultsSixteen randomized controlled trials (RCTs) and 14 non-RCTs were included. PPIs group had significantly lower risk of upper gastrointestinal bleeding (UGIB) than placebo/blank group (7 RCTs, RR = 0.30, 95%CI = 0.19-0.46; 2 non-RCTs, RR = 0.05, 95%CI = 0.01-0.42), no-PPI group (7 non-RCTs, RR = 0.50, 95%CI = 0.38-0.66), H
conclusionsThe evidence from RCTs and non-RCTs suggests the advantages of PPIs over placebo/blank, no-PPI, H
