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

Autoimmune gastritis, traditionally referred to as type A gastritis, is characterized by corpus-predominant atrophic gastritis caused by autoimmune mechanisms. Most cases are diagnosed in middle-aged or elderly individuals, as complications such as pernicious anemia and impaired absorption of iron and vitamin B12 typically manifest in advanced stages. Additionally, patients with autoimmune gastritis are often asymptomatic, making reports of early-stage endoscopic findings exceedingly rare. A 22-year-old male presented to our hospital with complaints of epigastric pain and lower back pain. He had undergone eradication therapy for
