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

Neurodevelopmental disorders result from interactions between genetic predisposition and environmental risk factors, with infancy being the most vulnerable period. We designed a longitudinal study to determine how short-term antibiotic exposure during early postnatal life impacts the gut microbiome, neurodevelopment, and behavior, and whether these alterations were exacerbated by the neurodevelopmental disorder-associated 16p11.2 microdeletion (16pDel) mutation. The cephalosporin antibiotic, cefdinir, broadly altered the gut microbiome acutely, with persistent reductions in several
