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

Type 2 diabetes is a prevalent metabolic disorder with serious health consequences, necessitating both enhanced diagnostic methodologies and comprehensive elucidation of its pathophysiological mechanisms. We compared fecal microbiome and urine metabolome profiles in type 2 diabetes patients versus healthy controls to evaluate their respective diagnostic potential. Using a cohort of 94 subjects (48 diabetics, 46 controls), this study employed 16S rRNA amplicon sequencing for fecal microbiome analysis and GC-MS for urinary metabolomics. While fecal microbiome alpha diversity showed no significant differences between groups, urinary metabolomics demonstrated distinct structural patterns and higher evenness in type 2 diabetes patients. The study identified several diabetes-associated urinary metabolites, including elevated levels of glucose and inositol, along with decreased levels of 6 urine metabolites including glycolic acid, hippurate, and 2-aminoethanol. In the fecal microbiome, genera such as
