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

Sensing our internal environment, or interoception, is essential under physiologic circumstances, such as controlling food intake, and under pathophysiologic circumstances, often triggering abdominal pain. The sensory neurons that innervate the gastrointestinal (GI) tract to mediate interoception originate in two separate parts of the peripheral nervous system: the spinal sensory neurons, whose cell bodies reside in the dorsal root ganglia (DRG), and the vagal sensory neurons, whose cell bodies reside in the nodose ganglia. While the vagal sensory neurons have been extensively studied for their roles in interoception, the roles of the DRG sensory neurons in internal gut sensing are only beginning to be uncovered. Here, we review the recent advances in understanding the diverse properties and functions of gut-innervating DRG sensory neurons and highlight the many unknowns with regards to this understudied population in regulating interoception.
