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

Host circadian signaling, feeding, and the gut microbiome are tightly interconnected. Changes in the gut microbial community can affect the expression of core clock genes, but the specific metabolites and molecular mechanisms that mediate this relationship remain largely unknown. Here, we sought to identify gut microbial metabolites that impact circadian signaling. Through a phenotypic screen of a focused library of gut microbial metabolites, we identified a bile acid metabolite, lithocholic acid (LCA), as a circadian modulator. LCA lengthened the circadian period of core clock gene
