Species-Specific Patterns of Gut Metabolic Modules in Dutch Individuals with Different Dietary Habits.
Article in mSphere, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 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
Diet is an important determinant of the human gut microbiome. Here, we analyzed fecal metagenomes of Dutch adults following omnivorous, pescatarian, vegan, and vegetarian diets. We compared the taxonomic composition of individuals from our study with publicly available gut metagenomes from westernized and non-westernized societies. We observed that, despite long-term transition to diets rich in plant fibers (vegan or vegetarian), the microbiomes of these were typical of westernized populations, and similar in composition to omnivores. Although there were no major differences in metabolic modules, we identified differences in the species that contributed to particular functions, such as carbohydrate degradation and short-chain fatty acid metabolism. Overall, this study shows functional redundancy of the microbiomes among westernized populations, which is independent of long-term individual dietary habits.
