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

Most humans have experienced regurgitation and vomiting (emesis) at some point in their lives. These behaviors are also commonly observed throughout the rest of the animal kingdom, serving various functions such as feeding, courtship, defense against predators, and protection from accidental toxin ingestion. Studying these behaviors offers valuable insights into the underlying gut-brain axis and presents opportunities to identify new therapeutic targets. However, detailed mechanistic studies on the molecular, genetic, and neural circuit basis of regurgitative behaviors have been hampered until recently due to the lack of suitable genetic model organisms capable of regurgitation. This review introduces researchers to the mechanisms of regurgitative behaviors, particularly those related to the gut-brain axis. We summarize these behaviors across different taxa, review current knowledge of their underlying mechanisms with a focus on gut-brain connections, and discuss related pathologies. Finally, we present recent findings from Drosophila models of regurgitation and emesis, and outline key questions that still require attention.
