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

Pasta is a staple food consumed worldwide and is made from wholegrain semolina, which is a food rich in dietary fibre, proteins, minerals, vitamins, and bioactive compounds. However, fermentable oligo-, di-, and monosaccharides and polyols (FODMAP), part of soluble dietary fibre in pasta, can trigger/worsen irritable bowel syndrome (IBS) symptoms and increase the prevalence of gastrointestinal disorders. These dietary fibres include lactose, excess fructose relative to glucose, polyols, fructans (mostly fructooligosaccharides), and galactooligosaccharides. Due to a lack of information on the FODMAP profile for pasta, this research conducted a detailed analysis using high-performance anion-exchange chromatography with pulsed amperometric detection to determine the FODMAP compound content in commercially available pasta, with a focus on wholegrain products. The results showed that fructooligosaccharides (FOSs) are the dominant group of FODMAPs, and kestose is the predominant oligosaccharide in all pasta samples both dry (67.1-95.0%) and cooked (27.1-93.9%). Almost all pasta samples are classified as high-FODMAP foods. The degree of reduction in FODMAP compound content during cooking varies between pasta types and is influenced by the wheat type, cooking time, amount of water used for cooking, pasta shapes, and pasta supplementation. In samples of dry pasta, there are statistically significant differences in the results between all samples, while after cooking, there is evident grouping of the results in four clusters. The reduction in FOS content of pasta after cooking was in the range from 30.9% to 84%. Further research should be focused on higher activity of FODMAP degrading enzymes during pasta production process.
