Piezo ion channels in the digestive system: Mechanotransduction pathways and therapeutic targeting strategies.
Review in Genes & diseases, 2026. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
Piezo ion channels, notably Piezo1 and Piezo2, are key mechanosensors that transduce mechanical forces into intracellular signals, playing indispensable roles in digestive physiology. These channels regulate essential functions such as intestinal motility, epithelial barrier integrity, bile secretion, and host-microbiota balance. Emerging evidence links aberrant Piezo signaling to a wide range of gastrointestinal disorders, including functional bowel diseases, inflammatory conditions, and digestive cancers. However, translating these insights into therapeutic applications remains challenging. Most current findings are derived from animal models or
