The role of the gut microbiome in the intergenerational transmission of the obesity phenotype: A narrative review.
Review in Frontiers in medicine, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 7 papers, 1 of them a synthesis 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
Obesity is considered an epidemic by the World Health Organization. In particular, maternal obesity can affect the development of obesity and other related metabolic disorders in infants. Recently, both animal and human studies have pointed to the importance of the gut microbiome in facilitating the transmission of the obesity phenotype from mother to offspring. The gut microbiome changes significantly during the progression of pregnancy, and the microbiota of the amniotic fluid and placenta have recently been shown to colonize the infant gut
