Mapping Research Trends on Intestinal Permeability in Irritable Bowel Syndrome with a Focus on Nutrition: A Bibliometric Analysis.
Review in Nutrients, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 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 complex gastrointestinal disorder characterized by chronic abdominal pain and altered bowel habits, often linked to disruptions in intestinal barrier function. Increased intestinal permeability plays a key role in IBS pathogenesis, affecting immune responses, gut microbiota, and inflammation. This study conducts a bibliometric analysis to explore global research trends on intestinal permeability in IBS, focusing on key contributors, collaboration networks, and thematic shifts, particularly the interplay between the intestinal barrier, gut microbiota, and dietary components. A total of 411 articles were retrieved from Scopus, with 232 studies analyzed using Bibliometrix in R. To optimize screening, ASReview, a machine learning tool, was employed, utilizing the Naïve Bayes algorithm combined with Term Frequency-Inverse Document Frequency (TF-IDF) for adaptive ranking of articles by relevance. This approach significantly improved screening step efficacy. The analysis highlights growing research interest, with China and the USA as leading contributors. Key themes include the role of gut microbiota in modulating permeability, the impact of dietary components (fiber, probiotics, bioactive compounds) on tight junction integrity, and the exploration of therapeutic agents. Emerging studies suggest integrating gut barrier modulation with nutritional and microbiome-targeted strategies for IBS management. This study provides a comprehensive overview of research on intestinal permeability in IBS, mapping its evolution and identifying major trends. By highlighting key contributors and thematic areas, it offers insights to guide future investigations into the interplay between gut permeability, diet, and microbiota, advancing understanding of IBS pathophysiology and management.
