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

The human body is actually a vast and changing ecosystem comprised of billions of microbial organisms, known collectively as the microbiome. Within the last few years, the study of the microbiome and its impact on human health has been a rapidly growing area of biomedical science. The gut intestinal tract microbiome has been a particular focus of research given its potential role in many inflammatory and metabolic diseases as well as drug metabolism. Although a nascent field, the potential for modulating the gut microbiome or human host interactions associated with these microbes offers new therapeutic strategies for many chronic diseases, in particular obesity, diabetes and inflammatory bowel diseases. Here we provide an overview of present knowledge about the gut microbiome, its putative role in metabolic diseases and the potential for microbiome focused treatments from the drug development perspective.
