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 aetiology of inflammatory bowel diseases (IBD) seems to be strongly connected to changes in the enteral microbiome. The dysbiosis pattern seen in Crohn's disease (CD) differs among published studies depending on patients' age, disease phenotype and microbiome research methods. The aims was to investigate microbiome in treatment-naive paediatric patients to get an insight into its structure at the early stage of the disease in comparison to healthy. Stool samples were obtained from controls and newly diagnosed patients prior to any intervention. Microbiota was analysed by 16SrRNAnext-generation-sequencing (NGS). Differences in the within-sample phylotype richness and evenness (alpha diversity) were detected between controls and patients. Statistically significant dissimilarities between samples were present for all used metrics. We also found a significant increase in the abundance of OTUs of the Enterococcus genus and reduction in, among others, Bifidobacterium (B. adolescentis), Roseburia (R.faecis), Faecalibacterium (F. prausnitzii), Gemmiger (G. formicilis), Ruminococcus (R. bromii) and Veillonellaceae (Dialister). Moreover, differences in alpha and beta diversities in respect to calprotectin and PCDAI were observed: patients with calprotectin <100 µg/g and with PCDAI below 10 points vs those with calprotectin >100 µg/g and mild (10-27.7 points), moderate (27.5-40 points) or severe (>40 points) CD disease activity had higher richness and diversity of gut microbiota. The results of our study highlight reduced diversity and dysbiosis at the earliest stage of the disease. Microbial imbalance and low abundance of butyrate-producing bacteria, including Bifidobacterium adolescentis, may suggest benefits of microbial modification therapy.
