Decoding Gastric Reflexes: The Role of Mechanosensitive Enteric Neurons in Stomach Motility.
Review in Neurogastroenterology and motility, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
This review focuses on mechanosensitive enteric neurons (MEN) in the guinea pig stomach and their roles in gastric motor reflex pathways. The guinea pig model is advantageous for studying gastric physiology, as its stomach structure and function closely resemble those of humans. Gastric motility involves distinct functional regions: the fundus and proximal corpus act as reservoirs, while the distal corpus and antrum handle food mixing and propulsion. Mechanosensitivity in both gastric cholinergic and nitrergic enteric neurons plays a critical role in adapting muscle activity in response to gastric content volume. These neurons enable reflex circuits involved in the accommodation reflex, with cholinergic excitatory and nitrergic inhibitory pathways promoting relaxation. This review summarizes the anatomical, functional, and neurochemical characteristics of MEN across gastric regions, their direct and indirect interactions with smooth muscle, and the role of distinct neurotransmitters in modulating gastric motility. The need for future studies on mechanosensitive pathways and involved neuronal receptors is highlighted to enhance our understanding, finally aiding therapeutic development.
