Figure 3 Forest plot of hybrid therapy vs sequential therapy for Helicobacter pylori eradication; Estimates of odds ratio defined with the random effect model with 95%CI using intention-to-treat analysis. The hybrid therapy was more effective than sequential therapy in the non-Italian population (relative risk = 1.09; 95%CI: 1.01-1.18). In contrast, the hybrid therapy was less effective than sequential therapy in the Italian population (relative risk = 0.90; 95%CI: 0.83-0.98).
