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 amino acids synthesized by the intestinal microbiota have been correlated with metabolic diseases, such as type 2 diabetes mellitus and insulin resistance; both are high incidence conditions in Mexico. However, the knowledge of the relationship of fecal amino acids with the development of both diseases in the Mexican population is scarce. The clinical study was descriptive; the study was carried out in the Antiguo Civil Hospital of Guadalajara. Samples were taken from a total of 48 participants with insulin resistance, diabetes, and a control group (n = 16 each). Anthropometric and biochemical measures were evaluated. HPLC carried out the quantification of fecal amino acids. A strong correlation between alanine and HOMA-IR (r = 0.5416) was found and between phenylalanine and HOMA-IR (r = 0.4258). Other interesting correlations were between alanine and glucose (r = 0.5854) and isoleucine and glucose (r = 0.5008). The diabetic group and the insulin-resistant group had increased fecal values of valine and isoleucine (branched-chain amino acids), which were positively correlated with the progression of both conditions. Likewise, alanine and phenylalanine can help predict the development of the disease in the Mexican population. Registry number: 037/19.
