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.

Abstract

Gastrointestinal dysfunction in cystic fibrosis (CF) is a prominent source of pain among patients with CF. Linaclotide, a guanylate cyclase C (GCC) receptor agonist, is a US Food and Drug Administration-approved drug prescribed for chronic constipation but has not been widely used in CF, as the cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator (CFTR) is the main mechanism of action. However, anecdotal clinical evidence suggests that linaclotide may be effective for treating some gastrointestinal symptoms in CF. The goal of this study was to determine the effectiveness and mechanism of linaclotide in treating CF gastrointestinal disorders using CF mouse models. Intestinal transit, chloride secretion, and intestinal lumen fluidity were assessed in wild-type and CF mouse models in response to linaclotide. CFTR and sodium/hydrogen exchanger 3 (NHE3) response to linaclotide was also evaluated. Linaclotide treatment improved intestinal transit in mice carrying either F508del or null Cftr mutations but did not induce detectable Cl
