Growth hormone attenuates obesity and reshapes gut microbiota in high-fat diet-fed mice.

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
Growth hormone (GH) and gut microbiota are key regulators of metabolism and have been linked to the development and treatment of obesity. Although variations in GH levels are associated with changes in gut microbiota composition, the specific effects of GH on gut microbiota and its role in obesity remain unclear. This study explored the effects of various GH doses (0.25, 0.75 and 1.5 IU/kg) on adipose tissue mass and gut microbiota in high-fat diet-induced obese mice. Notably, high-dose GH (1.5 IU/kg) significantly reduced the adipose tissue mass. This dose also reversed high-fat diet-induced gut microbiota dysbiosis, restoring microbial diversity and increasing the abundance of beneficial genera such as
