Efficacy of serotonin receptor agonists in the treatment of functional dyspepsia: a meta-analysis

Introduction Functional dyspepsia (FD) is typically treated with serotonin receptor (5-HT) agonists such as cisapride, mosapride, tegaserod and tandospirone citrate. However, there are conflicting efficacy data, possibly due to significant heterogeneity between studies. In this meta-analysis, we ana...
