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 microbiota play an important role in shaping brain functions and behavior, including the activity of the hypothalamus-pituitary-adrenocortical (HPA) axis. However, little is known about the effect of the microbiota on the distinct structures (hypothalamus, pituitary, and adrenals) of the HPA axis. In the present study, we analyzed the influence of the microbiota on acute restraint stress (ARS) response in the pituitary, adrenal gland, and intestine, an organ of extra-adrenal glucocorticoid synthesis. Using specific pathogen-free (SPF) and germ-free (GF) male BALB/c mice, we showed that the plasma corticosterone response to ARS was higher in GF than in SPF mice. In the pituitary, stress downregulated the expression of the gene encoding CRH receptor type 1 (
