1 · What the graph read from 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.

2 · The registry

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

Research on the gut microbiota in irritable bowel syndrome (IBS) shows discordant results due to inconsistent study designs or small sample sizes. This study aimed to characterize how gut microbiota in IBS patients differs from that in healthy controls by performing a case-control study and cross- and mega-cohort analysis. Multiple publicly shared data sets were examined by using a unified analytical approach. We performed 16S rRNA gene (V3-4) sequencing and taxonomic profiling of the gut bacterial communities. Fecal samples from children with IBS (
