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

The gut and brain interact through various metabolic and signaling pathways, each of which influences mental health. Gut dysbiosis caused by antibiotics is a well-known phenomenon that has serious implications for gut microbiota-brain interactions. Although antibiotics disrupt the gut microbiota's fundamental structure, the mechanisms that modulate the response and their impact on brain function are still unclear. It is imperative to comprehend and investigate crucial regulators and factors that play important roles. We aimed to study the effect of long-term antibiotic-induced disruption of gut microbiota, host metabolomes, and brain function and, particularly, to determine the basic interactions between them by treating the C57BL/6 mice with two different, most commonly used antibiotics, ciprofloxacin and amoxicillin. Anxiety-like behavior was confirmed by the elevated plus-maze test and open field test. Gut microbes and their metabolite profiles in fecal, serum, and brain samples were determined by 16S rRNA sequencing and untargeted metabolomics. In our study, long-term antibiotic treatment exerted anxiety-like effects. The fecal microbiota and metabolite status revealed that the top five genera found were
