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

Nowadays, the usage of probiotics in the food industry has become common. It has been proven that probiotics have many health benefits, such as adjusting the intestinal microbiome, boosting the immune system, and enhancing anti-inflammatory and anti-cancer activities. However, in recent years, some concerns have arisen about the consumption of probiotics, especially in vulnerable populations such as elderly, infants, and people with underlying diseases. As a result, finding a new alternative to probiotics that has the same function as probiotics and is safer has been prioritized. In recent years, postbiotics have been introduced as a great replacement for probiotics. However, the safety of these compounds is not exactly confirmed due to the limited in vivo research. In this review, the definition, classification, activities, limitations, and some advantages of postbiotics over probiotics are discussed. Finally, the limited published data about the safety of postbiotics is summarized.
