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 gut microbiome plays a key role in energy production, immune system development, and host resistance against invading pathogens, etc. Disruption of gut bacterial homeostasis is associated with a number of human diseases. Several environmental chemicals have been reported to induce alterations of the gut microbiome. Diazinon, one of important organophosphate insecticides, has been widely used in agriculture. Diazinon and its metabolites are readily detected in different environmental settings and human urine. The toxicity of organophosphates has been a long-standing public health concern. We recently demonstrated that organophosphate insecticide diazinon perturbed the gut microbiome composition of mice. However, the functional impact of exposure on the gut microbiome has not been adequately assessed yet. In particular, the molecular mechanism responsible for exposure-induced microbial profile and community structure changes has not been identified. Therefore, in this study, we used metatranscriptomics to examine the effects of diazinon exposure on the gut metatranscriptome in C57BL/6 mice. Herein, we demonstrated for the first time that organophosphate diazinon modulated quorum sensing, which may serve as a key mechanism to regulate bacterial population, composition, and more importantly, their functional genes. In addition, we also found that diazinon exposure activated diverse stress response pathways and profoundly impaired energy metabolism of gut bacteria. These findings provide new understandings of the functional interplay between the gut microbiome and environmental chemicals, such as organophosphates.
