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

This study examined the effects of hypoxemia caused by acute high-altitude hypoxia (AHAH) exposure on the human intestinal flora and its metabolites. The changes in the intestinal flora, metabolism, and erythropoietin content in the AHAH population under altitude hypoxia conditions were comprehensively analyzed using 16S rRNA sequencing, metabonomics, and erythropoietin content. The results showed that compared with those in the control group (C group), the flora and metabolites in the hypoxemia group (D group) were altered. We found alterations in the flora according to the metabolic marker tyrosine through random forest and ROC analyses. Fecal and serum metabonomics analyses revealed that microbial metabolites could be absorbed into the blood and participate in human metabolism. Finally, a significant correlation between tyrosine and erythropoietin (EPO) content was found, which shows that human intestinal flora and its metabolites can help to confront altitude stress by regulating EPO levels. Our findings provide new insights into the adaptive mechanism and prevention of AHAH.
