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 infant gut microbiome consists of a complex and diverse microbial community. Comprehensive taxonomic and metabolic functional knowledge about microbial communities supports medical and biological applications, such as fecal diagnostics. Among the omics approaches available for the investigation of microbial communities, metaproteomics-based analysis is a very powerful approach; under this method, the activity of microbial communities is explored by investigating protein expression within a sample. Through use of metaproteomics, this study aimed to investigate the microbial community composition of the infant gut to identify different key proteins playing metabolic functional roles in the microbiome of healthy infants and infants with atopic dermatitis in a Thai population-based birth cohort. Here, 18 fecal samples were analyzed by liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry to conduct taxonomic, functional, and pathway-based protein annotation. Accordingly, 49,973 annotated proteins out of 68,232 total proteins were investigated in gut microbiome samples and compared between the healthy and atopic dermatitis groups. Through differentially expressed proteins (DEPs) analysis, 130 significant DEPs were identified between the healthy and atopic dermatitis groups. Among these DEPs, eight significant proteins were uniquely expressed in the atopic dermatitis group. For instance, triosephosphate isomerase (TPI) in
