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

backgroundAlthough intestinal fungi are known to interact with the immune system, the relationship between intestinal fungi and childhood celiac disease (CeD), an immune-mediated condition, has rarely been reported.

aimsThe aim of this study was to describe gut fungal profiles in a cohort of children with new-onset CeD.

methodsMucosal and fecal samples were collected from children with CeD and controls and subjected to metagenomics analysis of fungal microbiota communities. DNA libraries were sequenced using Illumina HiSeq platform 2 × 150 bp. Bioinformatic analysis was performed to quantify the relative abundance of fungi. Shannon alpha diversity metrics and beta diversity principal coordinate (PCo) analyses were calculated, and DESeq tests were performed between celiac and non-celiac groups.

resultsOverall more abundant taxa in samples of children with CeD included Tricholomataceae, Saccharomycetaceae, Saccharomycetes Saccharomyces cerevisiae, and Candida, whereas less abundant taxa included Pichiaceae, Pichia kudriavzevii, Pneumocystis, and Pneumocystis jirovecii. Alpha diversity between CeD and control individuals did not differ significantly, and beta diversity PCo analysis showed overlap of samples from CeD and controls for both fecal or mucosal samples; however, there was a clear separation between mucosal and fecal overall samples

conclusionsWe report fungal dysbiosis in children with CeD, suggesting a possible role in the pathogenesis of CeD. Further larger, controlled, prospective and longitudinal studies are needed to verify the results of this study and clarify the functional role of fungi in CeD.
