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

aimHerein, we present five children and adolescents with a final diagnosis of non-celiac gluten sensitivity (NCGS).

backgroundNon-celiac gluten sensitivity (NCGS) is a condition characterized by gastrointestinal and extra-intestinal symptoms triggered by ingestion of gluten-containing compounds, e.g., wheat, rye, and barley, in subjects without celiac disease or wheat allergy.

methodsDemographic characteristics, clinical manifestations, serum biomarkers and skin prick test were evaluated. Patient data was also recorded after they followed a gluten-free diet (GFD). Height and weight were measured, and all patients were examined 6 months after following the suggested GFD.

resultsAll patients had failure to thrive and abdominal pain. Clinical symptoms were reduced, and significant weight and height gains were detected after 1 month of following a gluten-free diet.

conclusionThe relationship between failure to thrive (FTT) and NCGS is still unknown; hence, NCGS may be one of the main causes of FTT which can be prevented by gluten-free diets.
