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

backgroundBoth phylogeny and functional capabilities within the gut microbiota populations are of great importance for influencing host health. As a novel type of resistant starch, transglycosylated starch (TGS) modifies the microbial community and metabolite profiles along the porcine gut, but little is known about the related functional adaptations in key metabolic pathways and their taxonomic identity.

resultsMetagenomic sequencing was used to characterize the functional alterations in the cecal and colonic microbiomes of growing pigs fed TGS or control starch (CON) diets for 10 days (n = 8/diet). Bacterial communities were clearly distinguishable at taxonomic and functional level based on the dietary starch, with effects being similar at both gut sites. Cecal and colonic samples from TGS-fed pigs were enriched in Prevotella, Bacteroides, Acidaminoccus and Veillonella, whereas Treponema, Ruminococcus, and Aeromonas declined at both gut sites compared to CON-fed pigs (log

conclusionsMetagenomic sequencing revealed distinct cecal and colonic bacterial communities in CON- and TGS-fed pigs, with strong discrimination among samples by functional capacities related to the respective starch in each pig's diet.
