TMAO as a potential biomarker and therapeutic target for chronic kidney disease: A review.
Review in Frontiers in pharmacology, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 68 papers, 2 of them syntheses that pooled 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.
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 gut microbiota and its metabolites have become a hotspot of recent research. Trimethylamine N-oxide (TMAO) metabolized by the gut microbiota is closely related to many diseases such as cardiovascular disease, chronic kidney disease, type 2 diabetes, etc. Chronic kidney disease (CKD) is an important contributor to morbidity and mortality from non-communicable diseases. Recently, increasing focus has been put on the role of TMAO in the development and progress of chronic kidney disease. The level of TMAO in patients with chronic kidney disease is significantly increased, and a high level of TMAO deteriorates chronic kidney disease. This article describes the relationship between TMAO and chronic kidney disease and the research progress of drugs targeted TMAO, providing a reference for the development of anti-chronic kidney disease drugs targeted TMAO.
