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
Slow transit constipation (STC) is a rare condition almost exclusively encountered in middle-aged women. Pathophysiology and aetiology are poorly understood but a multi-factorial pathogenesis seems likely. With regard to differential diagnoses mechanical, drug induced, degenerative, metabolic, endocrinologic, neurologic, and psychiatric causes of constipation must be excluded by an interdisciplinary approach. Gastrointestinal physiologic investigations including colonic transit studies are mandatory. Furthermore, pangastrointestinal delay, pelvic floor dysfunction, and irritable bowel syndrome should be excluded. Initial treatment is strictly conservative. In cases of progression or persistence of symptoms surgical therapy should be discussed. Subtotal colectomy with ileorectal anastomosis is regarded as the standard operation for STC. Using strict selection criteria, overall success rates are reported in excess of 80%.
