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

unlabelledINTRODUCTION/

resultsIn 17 patients, chronic idiopathic nausea was associated with orthostatic intolerance (OI) by abnormal tilt table tests (88%) or gastric dysrhythmias (71%). After fludrocortisone treatment, there was >26% nausea improvement in 71%, 1-25% in 6%, and no improvement in 24%. In six subjects, EGGs repeated after >50% nausea improvement all remained to be abnormal, suggesting nausea is independent of gastric dysrhythmias.

conclusionAssociation of EGG abnormalities and OI in this subset of nausea patients suggests a generalized disturbance of autonomic regulation.
