Dynamic alteration in the gut microbiota and metabolome of Huanjiang mini-pigs during pregnancy.
Article in BMC veterinary research, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 papers.
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
backgroundMaternal gut microbiota and metabolites are associated with their offspring's health. Our previous study showed that maternal body fat percentage increased from days 45 to 110 of gestation in a Huanjiang mini-pig model. Thus, this study aimed to investigate the changes in gut microbiota composition and microbial metabolite profile of sows from days 45 to 110 of gestation.
resultsTwenty-four Huanjiang mini-pigs with average body weight were assigned for sample collection during early- (day 45 of pregnancy), mid- (day 75 of pregnancy), and late-pregnancy (day 110 of pregnancy). The results showed that the relative abundances of Clostridium_sensu_stricto_1, Romboutsia, Turicibacter, and Streptococcus in jejunal contents were higher at day 110 than those at day 45 or 75 of gestation. In the ileum, the relative abundance of Streptococcus was higher (P < 0.05) at day 110 of gestation, as well as the metabolism function of the jejunal and ileal microbiota. The ileal butyrate and acetate concentrations were higher at days 45 and 110 of gestation, respectively. In the colon, the concentrations of cadaverine and spermine were higher (P < 0.05) at days 45 and 110 of gestation, respectively. Metabolomic analyses demonstrated that the metabolic pathways, including D-glutamine and D-glutamate metabolism, phenylalanine/tyrosine/tryptophan biosynthesis, and alanine/aspartate/glutamate metabolism changed during gestation.
conclusionCollectively, our results showed that gut microbiota composition and microbial metabolites changed dramatically from early to late pregnancy in a Huanjiang mini-pig model. These findings will provide new targets in formulating maternal nutritional interventions to alleviate the adverse effects during pregnancy on offspring health outcomes.
