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

Objective: To explore the correlation of dietary index for gut microbiota (DI-GM) with non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD). Methods: Data of 6,711 participants were extracted from the National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (NHANES) during 2007-2018. A weighted logistic regression analysis was employed for assessment of the correlation of DI-GM with NAFLD, and a restricted cubic spline (RCS) analysis was implemented to examine potential non-linear associations. Subgroup analyses were conducted to identify particularly susceptible groups. Additionally, the synergistic effects of different DI-GM components on NAFLD risk was assessed by weighted quantile sum (WQS) regression. Results: The DI-GM exhibited statistically significant correlation with NAFLD [OR (95%CI):0.91 (0.85, 0.98), Conclusion: As an important tool for assessment of the influences of diet on gut microbiota, DI-GM is negatively correlated with NAFLD risk factors. Soybean, refined grains, coffee, and red meat are key factors influencing NAFLD. The direct correlation of DI-GM with NAFLD shall be explored and the effectiveness of prevention and treatment of NAFLD shall be evaluated by improving DI-GM scores via dietary interventions.
