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 present study aimed to investigate the response of intestinal microbiota during 3 weeks' starvation of largemouth bass (Micropterus salmoides), an economically important freshwater fish, using 16S rRNA gene amplicon sequencing and PICRUSt2 predictive functional profiling. Overall, the microbiota was mainly represented by Mycoplasma, Pseudomonas, Acinetobacter, and Microbacterium in the initial group. This pattern contrasted with that of Cetobacterium and Aeromonas, which were major representative genera in the starved group. Significant differences in the richness and composition of intestinal microbial community induced by starvation were observed. Notably, earthy-musty off-flavor compounds (geosmin and 2-methylisoborneol) were significantly decreased during starvation, which were significantly correlated with the abundance of certain actinobacterial taxa, namely, Microbacterium and Nocardioides. Additionally, the functional pathways involved in synthesis of off-flavor compounds, protein digestion, fatty acid degradation, and biosynthesis of cofactors greatly decreased with starvation, indicating that microbiota modulated the specific metabolic pathway to adapt to food deprivation. These results emphasize that starvation can modulate diversity, community structure, and functions of the intestinal microbiota and mitigate the off-flavors, which has important implications for strategies to eliminate off-flavor odorants through the application of probiotics to manipulate the gut microbiome and ultimately enhance flesh quality of freshwater fish.
