Fecal Incontinence and Defecatory Disorders in Patients With Ileal Pouch-Anal Anastomosis.
Article in Gastroenterology & hepatology, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 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
Functional anorectal disorders are common in patients with ileal pouch-anal anastomosis (IPAA) and often have a debilitating impact on quality of life. The diagnosis of functional anorectal disorders, including fecal incontinence (FI) and defecatory disorders, requires a combination of clinical symptoms and functional testing. Symptoms are generally underdiagnosed and underreported. Commonly utilized tests include anorectal manometry, balloon expulsion test, defecography, electromyography, and pouchoscopy. The treatment for FI begins with lifestyle modifications and medications. Sacral nerve stimulation and tibial nerve stimulation have been trialed on patients with IPAA and FI, resulting in improvement in symptoms. Biofeedback therapy has also been used in patients with FI but is more commonly utilized in defecatory disorders. Early diagnosis of functional anorectal disorders is important because a response to treatment may significantly improve a patient's quality of life. To date, there is limited literature describing the diagnosis and treatment of functional anorectal disorders in patients with IPAA. This article focuses on the clinical presentation, diagnosis, and treatment of FI and defecatory disorders in patients with IPAA.
