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

backgroundLittle is known about the impact of psychiatric comorbidity on pharmacologic treatment outcomes, including neuromodulators (medications targeting the gut-brain axis), among adult patients with disorders of gut-brain interaction (DGBI). Accordingly, we aimed to examine associations between psychiatric comorbidity and DGBI pharmacologic treatment outcomes.

methodsIn a retrospective study of consecutively referred new patients (N = 410; ages 18-90; 73% female) to a tertiary neurogastroenterology clinic in 2016 with follow-up through 2018, relationships between psychiatric illness (any psychiatric illness, anxiety disorders, depressive disorders) and pharmacologic treatment selection (any medication, neuromodulating medication) and treatment outcomes, respectively, were examined using multivariable logistic regression, adjusting for demographics, gastrointestinal (GI) diagnoses, and pre-existing neuromodulator use. KEY

resultsAnxiety disorders (35%) were the most common psychiatric comorbidity, followed by depressive disorders (29%). Patients with anxiety disorders were more likely to be prescribed a neuromodulator by their gastroenterologist (OR = 1.72 [95% CI 1.10-2.75]) yet less likely to respond to neuromodulators (OR = 0.43 [0.21-0.90]) or any GI medication (OR = 0.24 [0.12-0.50]) in fully adjusted analyses. In contrast, depressive disorders were not associated with neuromodulator prescription or response. CONCLUSIONS AND INFERENCES: Anxiety disorders are common among patients with DGBI and significantly reduce the likelihood of GI pharmacologic treatment response to any medication prescribed, including neuromodulators.
