Cyclic Vomiting Syndrome in Pediatric Patients: A Review of Therapeutics.
Article in The journal of pediatric pharmacology and therapeutics : JPPT : the official journal of PPAG, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 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
Cyclic vomiting syndrome (CVS) is a functional gastrointestinal disorder that can present quite a challenge to clinicians caring for children with this complex disease. Different therapeutic interventions are recommended for prophylaxis and acute abortive therapy for a CVS attack. The aim of this review is to summarize therapeutic treatment recommendations from the 2008 North American Society for Pediatric Gastroenterology, Hepatology, and Nutrition (NASPGHN) Consensus Statement on the Diagnosis and Management of Cyclic Vomiting Syndrome and discuss studies contemporary to this expert recommendation. After an extensive search of medical databases, 8 studies that evaluated therapeutic treatments for CVS were identified. Amitriptyline and cyproheptadine remain the standard of care for prophylaxis. Nutritional supplements such as carnitine and coenzyme Q10 have shown efficacy in decreasing episodes and severity in small studies with high tolerability among patients. The combination of ondansetron and sumatriptan are recommended for abortion of an acute vomiting episode, but other agents such as aprepitant and sedative agents can be considered when vomiting is refractory to initial treatments.
