Association between coffee and caffeine intake and functional dyspepsia.
Article in Scientific reports, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled 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.
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
No previous study has examined the association between coffee and caffeine intake and odds of functional dyspepsia (FD). The aim of this study was to investigate the association between coffee and caffeine intake and odds of FD and its components in a large sample of Iranian adults. In this cross-sectional study on 3362 adults aged 18-55 years, a validated food frequency questionnaire (DS-FFQ) was used to assess dietary intakes. A validated modified Persian version of the Rome III questionnaire was used for assessment of FD. Logistic regression was applied to compute odds ratios for FD and its components considering a wide range of covariates. Mean age of study population was 36.2 ± 7.8 years, of them 58.3% were females. The prevalence of FD among study participants was 14.5%. The prevalence of post-prandial fullness, early satiation, and epigastric pain was 7.6, 5.8, and 7.6%, respectively. After controlling for potential confounders, no significant association was observed between coffee (OR: 1.27; 95% CI: 0.86-1.87), and caffeine (OR: 1.00; 95% CI: 0.99-1.02) consumption and odds of FD. In addition, coffee and caffeine consumption was not significantly associated with odds of FD symptoms such as early satiation, post-prandial fullness, and epigastric pain. This was also the case when the analysis was done stratified by gender and BMI status. In conclusion, we found no significant association between coffee and caffeine consumption with odds of FD and its symptoms. Further research in other populations with high coffee consumption is needed.
