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

Inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) is a complex disease characterized by persistent chronic inflammation of the gastrointestinal tract and periodic episodes. Despite the increasing number of related studies, the detailed pathogenesis of IBD has not been elucidated. In recent years, host-microbiota interactions in the pathogenesis of IBD have received extensive attention. Testes-specific protease 50 (TSP50) is a potential risk gene for IBD, but whether it can affect the susceptibility of colitis by regulating the gut microbiome is still unclear. Here, we showed that TSP50 deficiency in neural stem cells (NSCs) aggravated colitis in mice by altering intestinal microbiome. Mechanistically, TSP50 maintained the level of neurotransmitter acetylcholine (ACh) by degrading acetylcholinesterase (AChE), thereby maintaining intestinal mucosa and intestinal microecological homeostasis and reducing the susceptibility to colitis. These findings provide a new perspective on the interaction between host and commensal microbiota, which may be beneficial for developing potential therapeutic strategies for IBD.
