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

Introduction The aim of this work was to treat patients with leaky gut syndrome (LGS) and gastrointestinal flora loss in a simple, inexpensive, permanent and effective way without the need for further treatment. Methods A total gastrointestinal flora transplantation (TGFT) procedure is performed by simultaneously transferring the "flora" taken from approximately 30 different anatomical sites, from the mouth to the anus, of healthy donors to the corresponding anatomical site of the patient using the endoscopic lavage method. Results Of the patients, 25 (44.6%) were female and 31 (55.4%) were male, totaling 56 (100%). The mean age was 32.88±15.78 years. Among the 56 patients enrolled in the study, TGFT had no efficacy in one patient, five patients underwent repeat TGFT during a mean follow-up period of 23.73±16.74 months, and the treatment was permanent in 50 patients; our success rate during the follow-up period was 89.3%. Conclusion In LGS, TGFT should be the gold standard treatment.
