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

The complex structure of lignocellulose, one of the most abundant renewable resources on earth, makes biodegradation challenging. Ruminant gastrointestinal microbiota achieves efficient lignocellulose degradation through a highly synergistic ecosystem, which provides an important research model for sustainable energy development and high value-added chemical production. This review systematically summarizes the key mechanisms of lignocellulose degradation by ruminant gastrointestinal microorganisms, focusing on the synergistic roles of rumen and hindgut (including cecum, colon, and rectum) microorganisms in cellulose, hemicellulose, and lignin degradation. The study focuses on the functional differentiation and cooperation patterns of bacteria, fungi and protozoa in lignocellulose decomposition, and summarizes the roles of carbohydrate-active enzymes (CAZymes) and their new discoveries under the histological techniques. In addition, this manuscript explores the potential application of gastrointestinal tract (GIT) microbial degradation mechanisms in improving the utilization of straw-based feeds. In the future, by revealing the mechanism of microbe-host synergy and integrating multi-omics technologies, the study of ruminant gastrointestinal microbial ecosystems will provide new solutions to promote the efficient utilization of lignocellulose and alleviate the global energy crisis.
