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

Visceral hypersensitivity (VH) is a condition where the internal organs have an enhanced sensitization to normal physiological stimuli or mild pathological stimuli, leading to chronic visceral pain or other discomforts, which is a typical characteristic of some intestinal disorders, such as irritable bowel syndrome (IBS) and inflammatory bowel disease (IBD). VH might be caused by gene, psychological disorders, social stress factors, gut microbiota, and some other factors, but the exact mechanisms are not yet clear. This review focuses on recent developments in the effect of intestinal cells on sensitization of nociceptors, high excitability of brain nuclei regulating visceral pain, and the novel roles of gut microbiota in VH. It is hoped to synthesize research advancements to demonstrate the possible peripheral and intracerebral processes of hypersensitization. Additionally, more animal experiments and clinical studies are still needed to improve our understanding about VH to reduce the suffering of patients with IBS and IBD.
