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

backgroundSerotonin type 3 receptor (5-HT3 R) antagonists are potentially useful therapeutic agents for diarrhea-predominant irritable bowel syndrome (IBS-D). To identify biomarkers predicting effectiveness of the 5-HT3 R antagonist (ramosetron) in IBS-D.

methodsIrritable bowel syndrome-D Japanese subjects received 2.5 or 5 μg of ramosetron once daily for 4 weeks. Colonic mucosal S100A and tryptophan hydroxylase (TPH) mRNA expression levels were measured before treatment. Genomic DNA was extracted from blood and polymorphisms of TPH1 and TPH2 were analyzed. KEY

resultsForty-two patients (27 men and 15 women, mean age 42 years) with IBS-D were included for analysis. Improvement of IBS symptoms was seen in 26 (61.9%). Baseline S100A10 (p = 0.02) and TPH1 (p = 0.02) expression were significantly higher in the ramosetron responders than in the non-responders. The frequencies of the TPH1 rs4537731G allele in linkage disequilibrium with the TPH1 rs7130929 T allele (11.5% vs 50%, p = 0.003; OR: 12; 95% CI: 2.1-69) along with TPH1 rs211105 C allele (3.8% vs 43.8%, p = 0.0003; OR: 19; 95% CI: 2.1-181) were significantly lower in the responders than in the non-responders. The mean scores of diarrhea at baseline were significantly higher (5.2 vs 3.7, p = 0.005) in patients with TPH1 rs211105 T/T than those with the G allele. CONCLUSIONS & INFERENCES: TPH1 gene polymorphisms and S100A10 expression, which correlate with 5-HT signaling were associated with ramosetron effectiveness in IBS-D, and may possibly lead to prospective identification of the resistance to treatment.
