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

Background: Growing evidence suggests the gut microbiota and metabolites in serum or fecal may play a key role in the process of alcohol use disorder (AUD). However, the correlations of gut microbiota and metabolites in both feces and serum in AUD subjects are not well understood. Methods: We established a rat model of AUD by a chronic intermittent ethanol voluntary drinking procedure, then the AUD syndromes, the gut microbiota, metabolomic profiling in feces and serum of the rats were examined, and correlations between gut microbiota and metabolites were analyzed. Results: Ethanol intake preference increased and maintained at a high level in experimental rats. Anxiety-like behaviors was observed by open field test and elevated plus maze test after ethanol withdraw, indicating that the AUD rat model was successfully developed. The full length 16S rRNA gene sequencing showed AUD significantly changed the β-diversity of gut microbial communities, and significantly decreased the microbial diversity but did not distinctly impact the microbial richness. Microbiota composition significantly changed in AUD rats, such as the abundance of Conclusion: The altered metabolites in feces and serum are important links between the gut microbiota dysbiosis and alcohol preference in AUD rats, and the altered gut microbiota and metabolites can be potentially new targets for treating AUD.
