Effect of ondansetron on vomiting associated with acute gastroenteritis in a developing country: a meta-analysis.
Synthesis in European journal of pediatrics, 2020. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
In high-income countries. ondansetron is an effective antiemetic in children with gastroenteritis, but data from low- and middle-income countries are sparse. This study aimed to evaluate evidences of the effectiveness of ondansetron in preventing vomiting and reducing the use of intravenous fluids in children with gastroenteritis in developing countries. A total of nine randomized controlled trials (RCTs) involving 2313 participants met the inclusion criteria. Compared with placebo, ondansetron reduced the use of intravenous rehydration (three RCTs, n = 1126, relative risk (RR) 0.60, 95% confidence interval (CI) 0.38-0.95, no significant heterogeneity, I
