Chronic constipation: current management and challenges.
Article in Canadian journal of gastroenterology = Journal canadien de gastroenterologie, 2011. 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
Many challenges are associated with the diagnosis and management of patients with chronic constipation. Some of these challenges arise from the currently incomplete understanding of what causes constipation and from the difficulties in diagnosing and classifying the heterogeneous group of patients with chronic constipation. Despite the availability of different treatment options for constipation, an unmet need for drugs in the treatment of patients with chronic constipation remains. This holds especially true for patients who fail an initial treatment. With promising novel drugs either close to approval for the Canadian market or on the horizon, many of these unmet needs may be addressed. The present supplement to The Canadian Journal of Gastroenterology provides an educational overview of the current understanding of the diagnosis, epidemiology, pathophysiology and management of chronic constipation, and summarizes current treatment options in light of current and newly available drugs.
