Small bowel bacterial overgrowth: presentation, diagnosis, and treatment.
Review in Current gastroenterology reports, 2003. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 28 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled 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.
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
Small bowel bacterial overgrowth (SBBO) syndrome is associated with excessive numbers of bacteria in the proximal small intestine. The pathology of this condition involves competition between the bacteria and the human host for ingested nutrients. This competition leads to intraluminal bacterial catabolism of nutrients, often with production of toxic metabolites and injury to the enterocyte. A complex array of clinical symptoms ensues, resulting in chronic diarrhea, steatorrhea, macrocytic anemia, weight loss, and less commonly, protein-losing enteropathy. Therapy is targeted at correction of underlying small bowel abnormalities that predispose to SBBO and appropriate antibiotic therapy. The symptoms and signs of SBBO can be reversed with this approach.
