Numerical analyses of intestinal microbiota by data mining.
Review in Journal of clinical biochemistry and nutrition, 2018. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 papers.
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
The human intestinal microbiota has a close relationship with health control and causes of diseases, and a vast number of scientific papers on this topic have been published recently. Some progress has been made in identifying the causes or species of related microbiota, and successful results of data mining are reviewed here. Humans who are targets of a disease have their own individual characteristics, including various types of noise because of their individual life style and history. The quantitatively dominant bacterial species are not always deeply connected with a target disease. Instead of conventional simple comparisons of the statistical record, here the Gini-coefficient (i.e., evaluation of the uniformity of a group) was applied to minimize the effects of various types of noise in the data. A series of results were reviewed comparatively for normal daily life, disease and technical aspects of data mining. Some representative cases (i.e., heavy smokers, Crohn's disease, coronary artery disease and prediction accuracy of diagnosis) are discussed in detail. In conclusion, data mining is useful for general diagnostic applications with reasonable cost and reproducibility.
