A Discussion of Whether Various Lifestyle Changes can Alleviate the Symptoms of Irritable Bowel Syndrome.
Review in Healthcare (Basel, Switzerland), 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 6 papers.
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
Irritable bowel syndrome (IBS) causes abdominal pain during bowel movements and is diagnosed according to the Rome IV international diagnostic criteria. Patients diagnosed as having IBS experience abdominal pain at least 1 day/week, on average, over a 3-month period and not 3 days per month. A diagnosis of IBS is confirmed if symptoms have persisted for more than 6 months. IBS symptoms negatively affect daily life. First, improving daily habits are important to ameliorating IBS symptoms. IBS symptoms can be alleviated by staying active, sleeping, resting and staying stress-free. In addition, it is important to eat three, balanced meals a day on a regular basis and avoid overeating, especially at night. Spicy foods, high-fat foods, and alcohol can exacerbate symptoms. Researchers found, in a literature review, that IBS symptoms can be ameliorated by improving daily habits, thus relieving abdominal pain and the defecation symptoms of IBS.
