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

Background and aim: Irritable bowel syndrome (IBS) is one of the most common gastrointestinal disorders characterized by chronic recurrent abdominal pain related to a change in bowel habit or defecation frequency and commonly accompanied by anxiety and depression affecting about 10% population globally. Jawarish Shahi (JS) is a special dosage form prepared for gastrointestinal disorders in Unani medicine containing Experimental procedure: This single-arm open-labeled clinical trial was conducted on 26 male and female patients of IBS according to Rome IV criteria, aged 18-50 years with moderate symptoms. JS was given 7 g orally twice a day after meal with water for 45 days. IBS Severity Scoring Scale (IBS-SSS) was used for efficacy outcomes and the difference was analyzed from baseline to the subsequent follow-ups. Results: Data analysis of subsequent followup showed a significant decrease in IBS-SSS scores except for 2nd followup, scores decreased from 229.50 ± 75.91 to 203.12 ± 71.71 (p < 0.1018), 150.61 ± 55.32 (p < 0.0001), and 123.76 ± 54.81 (p < 0.0001) at 0, 15th, 30th, 45th day of follow up respectively. Conclusion: The present study revealed that JS is safe and effective in reducing the overall symptoms of IBS in respect to its severity and impact on quality of life and can be used as an alternate as well as a complementary treatment in IBS.
