Predicting Gastric Intestinal Metaplasia in a High-Risk Population.
Article in Cureus, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 papers.
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
introductionGastric intestinal metaplasia (GIM) is a precancerous lesion. It has a low prevalence rate in the United States. However, GIM is more common among non-White and immigrant populations. Harlem Hospital serves a community that includes predominantly African Americans, Hispanics, and immigrants from West Africa and Spanish-speaking Caribbean countries. This study aims to define the factors predicting GIM in this high-risk group as well as help define screening strategies for vulnerable populations.
methodsA total of 1351 patients who underwent endoscopic gastroduodenoscopy (EGD) and biopsy in 2018 and 2019 for any indication at Harlem Hospital were included in this study. Gastric biopsy specimens taken during the procedure were assessed for GIM by histopathology. Baseline demographics were collected, including age, sex, and ethnicity. Other information collected included risk factors for GIM such as
resultsOf the 1351 patients reviewed, 106 had GIM for a prevalence of 8.0% (CI: 6.7%-9.6%, p < 0.001). Univariate analysis revealed older patients, males, history of smoking, alcohol, and
conclusionThe prevalence of GIM in our population is significantly higher compared to reported cases in the United States. Age, male gender,
