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

Adopting unique survival strategies during spring food shortages and simultaneous parturition and nursing is crucial for golden snub-nosed monkeys. Social behaviors, such as altruism within one-male units (OMUs), are decisive for family health, but the role of microbiota in regulating these behaviors remains unknown. We conducted the gut microbiota from members of 10 OMUs using 16S RNA sequencing technology. We found that in adult males, gut microbiota diversity significantly decreased in food shortages and parturition-nursing period. Meanwhile, there was a notable reduction in 12 metabolism-related pathways, including those related to carbohydrates, amino acids, and lipid. The gut microbiota of adult male monkeys shifts from being enriched with the genera
