Linaclotide Attenuates Visceral Organ Crosstalk: Role of Guanylate Cyclase-C Activation in Reversing Bladder-Colon Cross-Sensitization.
Article in The Journal of pharmacology and experimental therapeutics, 2018. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 8 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
Bladder pain syndrome (BPS) is poorly understood; however, there is a female predominance and comorbidity with irritable bowel syndrome (IBS). Here we test the hypothesis that linaclotide, a guanylate cyclase-C (GC-C) agonist approved for the treatment of IBS with constipation (IBS-C), may represent a novel therapeutic for BPS acting through a mechanism involving an inhibition of visceral organ cross-sensitization. We showed previously that infusion of dilute protamine sulfate (PS) into the bladder increased sensitivity and permeability in the bladder and colon. PS was infused into the bladder of female rats; sensitivity was assessed via application of von Frey filaments applied to the suprapubic area and the frequency of withdrawal responses was recorded. Colonic sensitivity was measured via visceromotor behavioral response to graded pressures of colorectal distension (CRD). Permeability was measured in vitro via transepithelial electrical resistance (TEER) and conductance (G). Linaclotide (3
