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

Dietary polyphenols are recognized as crucial modulators of gastrointestinal motility, holding therapeutic promise for conditions like irritable bowel syndrome, postoperative ileus, and functional dyspepsia. However, their reported effects are heterogeneous, ranging from spasmolytic to prokinetic. This review aims to clarify these inconsistencies by synthesizing experimental evidence on structure-activity relationships and underlying mechanisms. Relevant publications were identified in PubMed and Google Scholar using terms related to polyphenols and gastrointestinal motility. References were selected for relevance, and the narrative review integrates findings from in vitro, ex vivo, in vivo, and clinical studies. Across various experimental models, polyphenols function as multi-target modulators of gastrointestinal smooth muscle. The primary mechanisms identified involve the blockade of voltage-dependent L-type Ca
