Association of dietary live microbe intake with kidney stone disease in US adults: a real-world cross-sectional study.
Article in Frontiers in nutrition, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 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
Background: Kidney stone disease (KSD) is a common urological condition linked with hypertension, chronic kidney disease, and other health issues. Although the gut microbiome has a notable association with KSD formation, the relationship between dietary live microbes and KSD risk remains underexplored. Methods: This study utilized data from the NHANES surveys conducted between 2007 and 2016 to analyze the association between dietary live microbe intake and KSD. Dietary intake data were obtained through 24-h dietary recall interviews conducted by trained professionals. Participants were categorized into three groups based on Sanders' classification system of dietary live microbe intake: low, medium, and high. The intake levels were determined by estimating the live microbe content in foods. Weighted logistic regression analysis was employed to account for the complex survey design and to assess the impact of different levels of live microbe intake on KSD risk. Results: A total of 20,380 participants were included in the study. Participants with low, medium, and high dietary microbe intake represented 33, 39, and 28% of the cohort, respectively. The adjusted odds ratios (ORs) for KSD were 0.78 (95% CI, 0.65-0.93) in the high dietary live microbe group compared to the low group ( Conclusion: Higher dietary live microbe intake group may be associated with a reduced risk of KSD. Further prospective studies are necessary to validate these findings and to elucidate the specific mechanisms and optimal intake levels of dietary microbes.
