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

Gastrointestinal involvement is a common complication in systemic sclerosis patients and must be suspected and investigated already in the early stages of the disease. Gastrointestinal symptoms and complications-such as gastroesophageal reflux disease, intestinal pseudo-obstruction, malnutrition, diarrhea, constipation, and small intestinal bacterial overgrowth-severely impair systemic sclerosis patients' quality of life and affect their prognosis. Although some pathogenetic aspects of the gastrointestinal involvement in systemic sclerosis remain unclear, defining the characteristics of the microbiota and its role could help in risk stratification, selection of candidates for microbiota-targeted therapies, prediction of standard treatment efficacy, and prognosis of systemic sclerosis patients. Finally, understanding how to modify the microbiota composition may represent an important therapeutic approach to target gastrointestinal involvement in systemic sclerosis.
