Effects of hydroxychloroquine on the mucosal barrier and gut microbiota during healing of mice colitis.
Article in American journal of translational research, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 5 papers.
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
objectivesThe present study aimed to evaluate the impact of hydroxychloroquine (HCQ) on the mucosal barrier and gut microbiota during the healing of mice colitis.
methodsThe body weight, colon length, colon Hematoxylin-Eosin (H&E) staining, occult blood in feces and serum inflammatory factor levels were measured to evaluate the function of HCQ on inflammatory process in colitis mice. The Alcian blue staining, immunohistochemistry, immunofluorescence and serum FITC-Dextran assay were performed to assess the intestinal mucosal permeability. And the composition and expression differences of intestinal microorganisms in feces were analyzed with 16S rDNA sequencing for exploration of HCQ impact on gut microbiota in colitis.
resultsThe results showed that the administration of HCQ did not significantly alter the body weight, colon length, or fecal occult blood of the mice. However, HCQ treatment did lead to recovery of the structure and morphology of the intestinal mucosa, increased expression of tight junction proteins (E-cadherin and Occludin), decreased permeability of the intestinal mucosal barrier, increased serum IL-10, and decreased level of tumor necrosis factor-alpha (TNF-α). Additionally, HCQ was found to increase the abundance of Euryarchaeota, Lactobacillus_murinus and Clostridium_fusiformis, while decreasing the abundance of Oscillibacter, uncultured_Odoribacter, Bacterioidetes and Muribaculum.
conclusionsThese findings support that HCQ plays a role in the treatment of mice colitis possibly by altering the gut microbiota.
