Self-Balance of Intestinal Flora in Spouses of Patients With Rheumatoid Arthritis.
Article in Frontiers in medicine, 2020. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 15 papers.
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.
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
We sought to characterize and assess differences in compositions of intestinal flora between patients with rheumatoid arthritis (RA) and their respective spouses. Eighty volunteers were recruited, including 30 pairs of RA patients and their spouses, and 20 healthy individuals. Fresh stool samples were collected, processed, and 16S rRNA-sequencing was performed. Data were analyzed using an operational taxonomic units-based method, and community structure assessments were performed. Community composition analysis indicated that there were similar intestinal microbiota structures in RA and in their respective spouses. Gut microbiota in spouses of RA were different from those of the healthy controls group, but these differences were not significant. We found that
