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

The classification of gastrointestinal (GI) motility and functional gastrointestinal disorders is in a state of transition. Functional GI disorders are classified by their symptom complex, and the epidemiology of these conditions is based on symptom surveys. In contrast, GI motility disorders are classified by results of GI motility testing; the epidemiology of these conditions is often derived from tertiary care centers. Over time, with increasingly sophisticated methods of studying the brain-gut axis, the classification will likely shift from symptoms to a classification based on pathophysiology. This article reviews the epidemiology of these common disorders from the esophagus to the anorectum.
