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

OBJECTIVES/

methodsPlacebo-controlled phase II study evaluated aspirin's effect on CDX2 mRNA and prostanoid production in native and neosquamous epithelium after successful radiofrequency ablation (RFA) in Barrett's esophagus.

resultsAt 12 months TXB2, PGF2α, PGD2, PGE2, PGE1, and α13PGE2 increased in native squamous but not neosquamous epithelium in individuals randomized to placebo. Aspirin use significantly reduced CDX2 mRNA in native squamous epithelium, and was associated with decreases in PGE1, PGE2 and 13PGE2 in neosquamous epithelium.

conclusionsAfter RFA, native squamous and neosquamous epithelium exhibit different molecular markers and responses to aspirin suggesting that different sources of squamous progenitors contribute to esophageal re-epithelization.
