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

backgroundEnterotoxins produce diarrhea through direct epithelial action and indirectly by activating the enteric nervous system. Calcium-sensing receptor (CaSR) inhibits both actions. The latter has been well documented

aimTo determine whether CaSR agonists ameliorate secretory diarrhea evoked by cholera toxin (CTX) in mice.

methodsCTX was given orally to C57BL/6 mice to induce diarrhea. Calcium and calcimimetic R568 were used to activate CaSR. To maximize their local intestinal actions, calcium was administered luminally

resultsCTX induced secretory diarrhea, as evidenced by increases in fecal Cl

conclusionTreatment of acute secretory diarrheas remains a global challenge. Despite advances in diarrhea research, few have been made in the realm of diarrhea therapeutics. ORS therapy has remained the standard of care, although it does not halt the losses of intestinal fluid and ions caused by pathogens. There is no cost-effective therapeutic for diarrhea. This and other studies suggest that adding calcium to ORS or using calcimimetics to activate intestinal CaSR might represent a novel approach for treating secretory diarrheal diseases.
