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

Background and Aims: We have postulated that fecal microbiota transplantation (FMT) is associated with transfer of microbiota from the donor and engraftment of intestinal epithelial cells in the recipient's colonic mucosa enabling the restoration of a stable microbial environment. Methods: We analyzed the presence of human Y chromosome (ChrY) and sex-determining region Y (SRY) gene within total human DNA extracted from fecal samples collected from 30 donors and 22 recurrent Clostridium difficile infection (RCDI) patients before and up to 24 months after FMT. A next-generation sequencing data analysis pipeline was applied to quantify the percentage of reads aligning to human ChrY. SRY gene detection was also performed by quantitative polymerase chain reaction and droplet digital polymerase chain reaction. Results: A significantly higher percentage of ChrY reads were identified in fecal samples of male donors as compared to female donor ( Conclusion: These observations clearly demonstrate the presence of ChrY and SRY gene signal in stool samples collected from male patients. The presence of increased ChrY in the stool samples of female RCDI patients after FMT from a male donor suggests possible engraftment of exfoliated intestinal epithelial cells in a subset of these patients.
