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.

Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract

During the last 30 y, a gluten-free diet has been classified among the most popular fad diets mainly due to the ambiguous notion that gluten avoidance promotes health. Gluten intolerance has been implicated in non-celiac gluten sensitivity (NCGS) and irritable bowel syndrome (IBS), 2 disorders with overlapping symptoms and increasing trend. Together with gluten, other wheat components; fermentable oligo-, di-, monosaccharide, and polyols (FODMAPs); and amylase trypsin inhibitors (ATIs), are implicated in the pathogenesis of both disorders. Gut microflora alterations in IBS and NCGS have been described, while microbiota manipulations have been shown to be promising in some IBS cases. This literature review summarizes our current knowledge on the impact of wheat ingredients (gluten, FODMAPs, and ATIs) in IBS and NCGS. In both disorders, FODMAPs and ATIs trigger gut dysbiosis, suggesting that gluten may not be the culprit, and microbiota manipulations can be applied in diagnostic and intervention approaches.
