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

Fecal metabolites effectively discriminate inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) and show differential associations with diet. Metabolomics and AI-based models, including explainable AI (XAI), play crucial roles in understanding IBD. Using datasets from the UK Biobank and the Human Microbiome Project Phase II IBD Multi'omics Database (HMP2 IBDMDB), this study uses multiple machine learning (ML) classifiers and Shapley additive explanations (SHAP)-based XAI to prioritize plasma and fecal metabolites and analyze their diet correlations. Key findings include the identification of discriminative metabolites like glycoprotein acetyl and albumin in plasma, as well as nicotinic acid metabolites andurobilin in feces. Fecal metabolites provided a more robust disease predictor model (AUC [95%]: 0.93 [0.87-0.99]) compared to plasma metabolites (AUC [95%]: 0.74 [0.69-0.79]), with stronger and more group-differential diet-metabolite associations in feces. The study validates known metabolite associations and highlights the impact of IBD on the interplay between gut microbial metabolites and diet.
