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

Despite the huge pool of ideas on how diet can be manipulated to ameliorate or prevent illnesses, our understanding of how specific changes in diet influence the gastrointestinal tract is limited. This review aims to describe two innovative investigative techniques that are helping lift the veil of mystery about the workings of the gut. First, the gas-sensing capsule is a telemetric swallowable device that provides unique information on gastric physiology, small intestinal microbial activity, and fermentative patterns in the colon. Its ability to accurately measure regional and whole-gut transit times in ambulant humans has been confirmed. Luminal concentrations of hydrogen and carbon dioxide are measured by sampling through the gastrointestinal tract, and such application has enabled mapping of the relative amounts of fermentation of carbohydrates in proximal-
