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.

Abstract
Objectives: This study aimed to examine the effects of Methods: In this double-blind, randomized, placebo-controlled, 12-week intervention study, toddlers with at least 2 respiratory illness symptoms were randomly assigned into the probiotic (YLGB-1496) or placebo group at a 1:1 ratio. Follow-up examinations were conducted at baseline (week 0) and at weeks 6 and 12 of the intervention. The frequency of respiratory illness symptoms was assessed at these time points using validated questionnaires. Oral swabs and fecal samples were collected from participants at weeks 0, 6, and 12 to examine inflammatory cytokines. Results: Among the 120 toddlers initially included in the study, 115 completed the 12-week intervention (58 in the YLGB-1496 group and 57 in the placebo group). The risk of antibiotic use or clinical visits was significantly lower in the YLGB-1496 group than in the placebo group (antibiotic use odds ratio (OR) = 0.37 [0.369, 0.372]; clinical visit, OR = 0.743 [0.741, 0.744]), but these differences were nonsignificant after adjusting for other potential confounders ( Conclusion: Clinical trial registration: The trial was registered at ClinicalTrials.gov (identifier number NCT05794815).
