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 purpose of this study is to determine the effect of Asparagus on bacterial diversity in the intestinal mucosa of mice fed with high-fat diet, thus providing theoretical basis for the development and research of Asparagus products. Twelve healthy male Kunming mice and twelve healthy female Kunming mice were chosen and randomly divided into normal group, model group, Asparagus group, and lipid-lowering decoction group, with six mice in each group. After establishing the models of mice fed with high-fat diet through feeding with high-fat diet, the mice in the Asparagus group were gavaged with Asparagus juice, those in the lipid-lowering decoction group were gavaged with lipid-lowering decoction, and those in the normal group and high-fat diet group were gavaged with the equal amount of distilled water. Intestinal mucosa from the jejunum to ileum were collected, and DNA was extracted from each mice. The characteristics of the intestinal microbial species were analyzed by PacBio Sequel-based 16S rRNA sequencing. Result showed that the total OTU reached 1559 in the normal group, 1750 in the high-fat diet group, 1795 in the lipid-Lowering decoction group, and 1635 in the Asparagus group, which indicated that the Asparagus juice could inhibit the total OUT of intestinal bacteria. The analysis on sample community diversity indicated that the richness, diversity, richness estimation, and diversity in the Asparagus Group, lipid-lowering decoction group, and normal group were lower than those in the high-fat diet group. Bacteriophyta classification analysis indicated that the relative abundance of Firmicutes, Bacteroidetes, and Actinobacteria in the Asparagus group was between that in the high-fat diet group and normal group. In conclusion, Asparagus can affect the diversity of bacteria in the intestinal mucosa of mice fed with high-fat diet, and achieve a lipid-lowering effect by regulating the intestinal microecology of mice fed with high-fat diet.
