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

backgroundThe aim of the study is to compare gastrointestinal (GI) transit times and evaluate the adequacy of radiographic opacification of barium sulphate (BaSO

resultsTotal transit time (esophagus to cloaca) was significantly shorter for iohexol (5.0 ± 0.0 min) compared to BaSO

conclusionsLimitations of this study include the small sample size (n = 8) and the use of static radiography rather than fluoroscopy, which precluded real-time motility assessment. Iohexol is a safe and significantly faster alternative to BaSO
