Review in Current gastroenterology reports, 2019. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. It is linked to trial NCT04313088 (Double Blind, Placebo Controlled, Cross Over Study to Investigate the Effectiveness and Safety of Eluxadoline in the Treatment of Diabetic Diarrhea), which is not on this map. Cited by 7 papers, 2 of them syntheses that pooled it.

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.

Abstract

purpose of reviewIrritable bowel syndrome (IBS) is a functional GI disorder that affects a large percentage of the population and presents a significant socio-economic burden on the society. In this article, we reviewed the evidence supporting various pharmacological treatment options for IBS. RECENT

findingsRifaximin, eluxadoline, and alosetron have demonstrated that they reduce symptom severity improving quality of life in patients with IBS-diarrhea. Ramosetron is a promising agent in development. Peppermint oil has also demonstrated a positive impact on some symptoms of IBS. For IBS with constipation, traditional laxatives have failed to demonstrate significant benefit. However, lubiprostone, linaclotide, and plecanatide have demonstrated improvement of IBS with constipation in large, placebo-controlled trials. Tenapanor, a sodium/hydrogen exchanger 3 inhibitor, appears to be a promising treatment option in the pipeline. There are multiple pharmacologic agents with a variety of mechanisms that have demonstrated efficacy in IBS with diarrhea and constipation. There are no established pharmacologic agents for IBS with a mixed bowel pattern. There is a promising pipeline for additional novel therapies for IBS.
