The effect of low-FODMAP diet on patients with irritable bowel syndrome.
Article in Scientific reports, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 8 papers.
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
Irritable bowel syndrome (IBS) is a chronic gastrointestinal disease that causes abdominal pain associated with alteration of bowel habits. This study aimed to assess the efficacy of low Fermentable Oligosaccharides, Disaccharides, Monosaccharides, Polyols (FODMAP) diet intervention in adult patients with mild and severe symptoms of Irritable Bowel Syndrome (IBS) in Jeddah, Saudi Arabia. The study involved a low-FODMAP dietary intervention program that included anthropometric measurements (height and weight). A total of 45 randomly selected adult IBS patients were recruited from the family medicine department at King Abdulaziz Hospital and primary healthcare centers at King Fahd Hospital in Jeddah, Saudi Arabia. The severity of IBS symptoms was assessed using the validated IBS-SSS questionnaire developed by the Rome Foundation. Additionally, dietary data were gathered through a validated semi-quantitative food frequency questionnaire (FFQ) Study participants included 68.9% females and 31.1% males, with the age group 18-30 years (66.7% of the total sample), followed by 31-45 years (33.3%). 62.2% were married and 37.8% were single. The mean BMI of the participants was 23.18 ± 2.348 kg/m
