Association between dietary index of gut microbiota and constipation in a female population: a cross-sectional study.
Article in Frontiers in nutrition, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 papers.
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.
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
Objective: To examine the potential association between dietary index of gut microbiota (DI-GM) scores and constipation in adult women in the United States. Methods: This cross-sectional study used data from adult participants in the 2005-2010 US National Health Survey (NHANES). The missing values in the covariables were filled by multiple interpolation. Multivariate logistic regression models were used to determine the odds ratios (OR) and 95% confidence intervals (CI) for the association between DI-GM and constipation. Subgroup analyses were also performed to examine the possible interactions between DI-GM and constipation. Results: Of the 7,325 subjects, 887 reported constipations, with a prevalence of 12.1%. After adjustment for multivariate modeling, the DI-GM score was significantly associated with constipation (0.92 [95% CI 0.87-0.96]; Conclusion: DI-GM was negatively associated with the incidence of constipation in the female population. Clinicians should consider the influence of dietary structure on the treatment of constipation in women. Dietary intervention can be an important strategy for the comprehensive treatment of constipation.
