Gastric motor disturbances in patients with idiopathic rapid gastric emptying.
Article in Neurogastroenterology and motility, 2011. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 37 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
backgroundThe mechanisms of 'idiopathic' rapid gastric emptying, which are associated with functional dyspepsia and functional diarrhea, are not understood. Our hypotheses were that increased gastric motility and reduced postprandial gastric accommodation contribute to rapid gastric emptying.
methodsFasting and postprandial (300kcal nutrient meal) gastric volumes were measured by magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) in 20 healthy people and 17 with functional dyspepsia; seven had normal and 10 had rapid gastric emptying. In 17 healthy people and patients, contractility was analyzed by spectral analysis of a time-series of gastric cross-sectional areas. Logistic regression models analyzed whether contractile parameters, fasting volume, and postprandial volume change could discriminate between health and patients with normal or rapid gastric emptying. KEY
resultsWhile upper gastrointestinal symptoms were comparable, patients with rapid emptying had a higher (P=0.002) body mass index than normal gastric emptying. MRI visualized propagating contractions at ∼3cpm in healthy people and patients. Compared with controls (0.32±0.04, Mean±SEM), the amplitude of gastric contractions in the entire stomach was higher (OR 4.1, 95% CI 1.2-14.0) in patients with rapid (0.48±0.06), but not normal gastric emptying (0.20±0.06). Similar differences were observed in the distal stomach. However, the propagation velocity, fasting gastric volume, and the postprandial volume change were not significantly different between patients and controls. CONCLUSIONS & INFERENCES: MRI provides a non-invasive and refined assessment of gastric volumes and contractility in humans. Increased gastric contractility may contribute to rapid gastric emptying in functional dyspepsia.
