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

Here, we explored the correlation between gut microbiota and bone health and the effects of high-fructose corn syrup (HFCS) on both. Sixteen 3-week-old male C57BL/6J mice were randomly divided into two groups and given purified water (control group) or 30% HFCS in water (HFCS group) for 16 weeks. The effects of HFCS were assessed via enzyme-linked immunosorbent assays, histopathological assays of colon and bone, and 16S rDNA sequence analysis of gut microbiota. The serum of HFCS group mice had lower levels of bone alkaline phosphatase (BALP), bone Gla protein (BGP), insulin-like growth factor 1 (IGF-1), and testosterone, and higher levels of type I collagen carboxyl-terminal telopeptide (ICTP) and tartrate-resistant acid phosphatase (TRAP) than that of the control group. HFCS caused trabecular bone damage by decreasing trabecular number and thickness and increasing trabecular separation. The HFCS group colons were shorter than the control group colons. The HFCS-fed mice showed mild, localized shedding of epithelial cells in the mucosal layer, focal lymphocytic infiltration of the lamina propria, mild submucosal edema, and loosely arranged connective tissue. The HFCS group displayed lower abundance and altered composition of gut microbiota. The abundance of
