Evaluation of the Fermentation Characteristics of Prebiotic-Containing Granola and Short-Chain Fatty Acid Production in an In Vitro Gut Microbiota Model.

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
Mammalian gut microbiota is essential for host metabolism and immune function and produces short-chain fatty acids (SCFAs) via fermentation of dietary fibers and prebiotic materials. In this study, we aimed to investigate the effects of prebiotic-containing granola on SCFA production and gut microbiota composition using an in vitro pig feces anaerobic fermentation model. Six prebiotic materials (inulin, resistant starch, fructooligosaccharides, galactooligosaccharides, cacao mass, and barley) were added to granola, and their fermentation characteristics were evaluated. SCFA analysis revealed that prebiotic materials significantly increased the total SCFA production after 48 h, with inulin, fructooligosaccharide, and galactooligosaccharide showing the highest production. Bacterial growth was enhanced in multiple genera; however, the growth varied with different prebiotics. Previous studies have suggested the presence of responders and non-responders to individual prebiotics, emphasizing the need to combine diverse prebiotics to overcome such variations. Prebiotic-containing granola, but not prebiotic material, significantly increased the abundances of
