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

backgroundWith the comorbid anxiety/depression in gastrointestinal diseases occur at a high rate worldwide, it is particularly important to discover and optimize the protocols of comorbidity models, thus further to reveal the mechanism and develop the treatment strategies of comorbidity.

methodsUsing "functional dyspepsia (FD), animal model, anxiety, depression" as search terms, this search is conducted in PubMed, Web of Science, and SpringerLink databases, with the search period from 2020 to 2025.

resultsWe find that both iodoacetamide (IA) gavage and tail clamping (TC) are classical methods for establishing FD model; physical stress such as "ice water gavage" or "irregular feeding (IF)" also used. We propose that IA + TC + IF or TC + IF + ice water gavage can be used to prepare comorbidity models in future. Maternal separation (MS) may also potentially become one of the effective models for studying comorbidities. In anxiety/depression model, we show that both chronic restraint stress (CRS) and chronic unpredictable mild stress (CUMS) are classical models for emotional disorders. We suggest CRS/CUMS combines with IA/IF/TC can better to establish gastrointestinal-emotional comorbidity model which through brain-gut cross talk. Then the review also develops a comprehensive and standardized evaluation system for comorbidity models, with recording behavioral indicators related to gastrointestinal/emotional disorders, while including multidimensional parameters such as the microbiota, neuroinflammation, metabolomics, brain-gut peptide, and neurotransmitters.

conclusionThis study is the first comprehensive comparison of FD and anxiety-depression modeling protocols to propose effective protocols of comorbidity models and develop a comprehensive and standardized evaluation system for comorbidity models.
