Pilot Study of Ondansetron in Improvement of Pediatric Colonoscopy Preparation Outcomes at an Urban Academic Center.
Trial report in JPGN reports, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. It is linked to trial NCT05439772 (Examining the Effect of Ondansetron on Bowel Prep Success), which is not on this map. Cited by 1 paper, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled 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.
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.

Abstract
Objectives: To gather initial data on the effectiveness and tolerability of the addition of Ondansetron to bowel preparation regimens to justify a funded, larger, placebo-controlled study. Methods: Results: No benefit to BBPS from the addition of Ondansetron to bowel preparation was observed. Statistically significant improvement in reports of abdominal pain (35% decrease in Ondansetron arm) was noted with a Conclusion: No benefit to efficacy of preparation as measured by the BBPS was observed. A single dose of Ondansetron before bowel preparation reduced reports of abdominal pain by 35%, with other symptomatic improvements suggesting possible improvements to be confirmed by a higher-powered study. Trial registration: NCT05439772.
