[Drug therapy of infectious diarrhea. Part 2: Chronic diarrhea].
Review in Der Internist, 2013. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
Diarrheal diseases are among the most common diseases worldwide. In this review the current treatment recommendations for acute (Part 1) and chronic (Part 2) infectious diarrhea are summarized and typical enteropathogens are discussed. The second part of the article describes chronic diarrhea, its related pathogens and treatment. In contrast to acute diarrhea which is mainly caused by viral and typical bacterial pathogens, chronic diarrhea has mainly non-infectious origins. Protozoal pathogens, such as Giardia lamblia and Entamoeba histolytica in particular are found and more rarely bacterial pathogens, such as Tropheryma whipplei. Opportunistic pathogens cause diarrhea in immunocompromised patients, such as in HIV patients. In these patients cytomegalovirus (CMV) colitis or infections with Cryptosporidium spp., Cyclospora cayetanensis, Isospora belli or microsporidia have to be considered. Besides targeted specific antimicrobial therapy, anti-retroviral drugs improving the underlying immunosuppression and thus the reconstitution of the adaptive immune response remain a cornerstone of the treatment in HIV-positive patients.
