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
Disordered gut microbiota (GM) as the co-contributor of atrial fibrillation (AF) and hypertension (HTN) might be associated with AF risk in HTN. This study aimed to explore the altered GM community and metabolic patterns between 27 HTN patients with AF (HTN-AF) and 27 non-AF HTN patients through fecal metagenomic and serum metabolomic analysis. Compared to non-AF HTN patients, significant microbial alterations (p = 0.004), including increased microbial diversity (p < 0.05), shifted enterotype dominated by Prevotella to Bacteroides, and abundant disease-linked genera Ruminococcus, Streptococcus, Veillonella, Dorea, and Enterococcus, were observed in HTN-AF patients. A species-based random forest prediction model was associated with the risk of AF occurrence in HTN patients. Furthermore, GM metabolic profiles dramatically differed between HTN and HTN-AF patients, especially the imbalance of saturated and unsaturated fatty acids. In HTN-AF patients, circulating palmitic acid and arachidonic acid levels were significantly elevated, while the levels of tetracosahexaenoic acid, oleic acid, linoleic acid, and stearic acid were decreased (p < 0.001, VIP > 1), mediating 85.99% of gut microbial indirect effects on AF (p < 0.001). Thus, our findings preliminarily indicated that exacerbated dysbiosis of GM and relevant metabolites was associated with high AF susceptibility and might be a potential target for AF prediction and prevention in HTN.
