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 irritable bowel syndrome (IBS) is a complex disorder in which psychosocial, cultural and biological factors, interact. Recent knowledge in the pathophysiology of IBS, seem to combine issues such as a low grade inflammation or immune activation and dysbiosis that can trigger or exacerbate IBS. On the other hand, stress mediated through the hypothalamic-pituitary-adrenal axis can produce motility abnormalities that can modify the microbiota as well, with the subsequent immune activation in the mucosa and stimulation of nerve terminals, generating symptoms of IBS. Also, we speculate that, stress, dysbiosis or an underlying genetic predisposition, may increase the epithelial permeability leading to a contact between pathogens-associated molecular patterns and toll-like receptors in the deeper layers of the gut, developing a host immunity response and IBS generation. We believe that the role of toll-like receptors in IBS and elucidating the communication processes between the immune and the nervous system, warrant future research.
