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

The gut microbiota plays a crucial role in the manifestation of intestinal dysfunction associated with irritable bowel syndrome (IBS). The mechanosensory Piezo2 has been implicated in the regulation of intestinal function. However, it remains unclear whether Piezo2 is modulated by the gut microbiota, thus contributing to the development of visceral hypersensitivity and gut dysmotility. The study enrolled patients with diarrhea-predominant IBS (IBS-D) alongside healthy controls (HC). Questionnaires, rectal barostat test, and colonoscopy with mucosal biopsy were conducted. Fecal microbiota transplantation (FMT) was performed using samples from HC or IBS-D patients, and interventions with
