Analysis of Fecal Microbiome and Metabolome Changes in Goats When Consuming a Lower-Protein Diet with Varying Energy Levels.
Article in Microorganisms, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 6 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
The objective of this study was to evaluate the effect of fecal bacterial community and metabolomics in goats when consuming a lower-protein diet with different energy levels. Eight healthy Leizhou goats, with 11 ± 0.78 kg of body weight, were selected and housed individually in cages. The animals were randomly allocated to a lower-protein diet that varied with four metabolites energy levels (7.01, 8.33, 9.66, and 10.98 MJ/kg DM) in a replicated 4 × 4 Latin square design. Notably, energy-dependent microbial restructuring was observed at both phylum and genus levels. At the phylum level, the relative abundances of Firmicutes and Spirochaetote increased linearly, whereas the Bacteroidota and Patescibacteria decreased linearly with increasing dietary energy levels (
