Counts group repeated records of the same source within each side. They do not measure evidence strength or source independence.

Is it true that stomach growling occurs when intestinal muscle contractions move gas and fluid through the gut?

Yes. Two sources directly state that intestinal muscle contractions (peristalsis) squeezing and propelling gas and fluid through the gut generate the rumbling noise known as borborygmi, matching the claim; a medical physiology text also links gut gas to rumbling noises.
