Abdominal and Diaphragmatic Mobility in Adults With Chronic Gastritis: A Cross-Sectional Study.
Article in Journal of chiropractic medicine, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. It is linked to trial NCT05914129 (Efficacy of Osteopathic Visceral Treatment on the Diaphragm, Stomach and Liver in Patients With Chronic Neck Pain), which is not on this map. Cited by 1 paper.
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.

Abstract
Objective: The purpose of this study was to assess abdominal and diaphragmatic mobility in adults with chronic gastritis compared with healthy individuals and to analyze the impact of chronic gastritis on musculoskeletal signs and symptoms of the cervical and thoracic spine. Methods: This was a cross-sectional study conducted by the physiotherapy department at the Universidade Federal de Pernambuco in Brazil. Fifty-seven individuals participated, 28 with chronic gastritis (gastritis group [GG]) and 29 healthy individuals (control group [CG]). We assessed the following: restricted abdominal mobility in the transverse, coronal, and sagittal planes; diaphragmatic mobility; restricted cervical vertebral segmental mobility; restricted thoracic vertebral segmental mobility; and pain on palpation, asymmetry, and density and texture of the soft tissues on the cervical and thoracic spine. The measure of diaphragmatic mobility was assessed with ultrasound imaging. The Fisher exact and χ Results: Restricted abdominal mobility in all directions ( Conclusion: Individuals with chronic gastritis presented greater abdominal restriction and lower diaphragmatic mobility, in addition to a higher occurrence of musculoskeletal dysfunction in the cervical spine when compared with healthy individuals.
