Efficacy and Safety of Clidinium/Chlordiazepoxide as an Add-on Therapy in Functional Dyspepsia: A Randomized, Controlled, Trial.
Article in Journal of neurogastroenterology and motility, 2020. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 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
BACKGROUND/
aimsThe treatment of refractory functional dyspepsia (FD) is a challenge. Clidinium/chlordiazepoxide is a combination of antispasmodic and anxiolytic drugs that has been used as an adjunct treatment for FD in clinical practice with limited supporting evidence of efficacy. The aim of the study is to assess the efficacy and safety of clidinium/chlordiazepoxide as an adjunct treatment to a proton pump inhibitor (PPI) in refractory dyspepsia.
methodsWe performed a study of patients who met the Rome IV criteria for FD who failed to respond to PPIs. Patients were randomly assigned to groups that received clidinium/chlordiazepoxide or placebo as an add-on treatment to PPI for 4 weeks. The primary outcome was the rate of responders, which was defined as a > 50% reduction in dyspepsia symptom score after 4 weeks of treatment. The secondary outcomes were an improvement in the quality of life and the safety profile.
resultsBetween March 2017 and February 2018, 78 patients were enrolled. The rates of responders in the clidinium/chlordiazepoxide group and placebo groups were 41.03 % and 5.13% at week 4 (
conclusionsClidinium/chlordiazepoxide significantly improved dyspeptic symptoms and quality of life. This combination may be used as an add-on therapy in FD patients without major adverse events.
