Intestinal gas retention in patients with idiopathic slow-transit constipation.
Article in Digestive diseases and sciences, 2007. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
Patients with slow-transit constipation (STC) have delayed colonic transit for solid und liquid bowel contents but intestinal gas handling has not been studied so far. Different nutrients influence motor and sensory gut function. We hypothesized that, in patients with STC, alteration of regulatory mechanisms may result in impaired intestinal gas dynamics. On 3 separate days, validated gas challenge was performed in 10 STC patients and 10 volunteers during duodenal saline, lipids, or intravenous glucose. During saline only 60% +/- 8% of gas was cleared by STC patients after 60-min gas infusion, vs. 91% +/- 2% by controls (P < 0.001). Acute hyperglycemia or lipids did not change intestinal gas dynamics in these patients (saline infusion), but compared to healthy subjects, significant intestinal gas retention occurred. In STC, disturbances of intestinal gas dynamics include basal intestinal gas retention, and this is virtually not affected by acute hyperglycemia or duodenal lipids.
