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: Functional gastrointestinal disorders (FGIDs) encompass a wide spectrum of disorders that may be diagnosed using the Rome criteria. Aim: To identify the prevalence and risk factors for the development of FGIDs in Jordanian infants. Material and methods: We conducted a cross-sectional study to investigate the prevalence of FGIDs among infants and characterise any possible risk factors. Between 1 January 2020, and 30 December 2020, patients who presented to the paediatric follow-up clinic at King Abdullah University Hospital were recruited. Parents were interviewed and asked to complete an Arabic version of the Rome IV diagnostic questionnaire for pediatric gastrointestinal disorders for neonates and toddlers. Data regarding the parents' gastrointestinal symptoms and children's medical history were collected. Children's electronic medical files were also reviewed. Results: The study included 127 children, 78 (61%) were males. The median age was 40 days. According to the Rome IV criteria eighty-two (64%) of the infants fit the diagnosis for at least one disorder. The most prevalent disorder was functional constipation ( Conclusions: FGIDs were common among young infants. Functional constipation was the most commonly diagnosed FGID. Infants with with FGIDs were more likely to intake herbs to ease the symtpoms.
