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

backgroundIn this study, we are committed to exploring the characteristics of the gut microbiome in three different stages of chronic liver disease (CLD): Chronic hepatitis B, liver cirrhosis, and hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC).

aimTo delineate the gut microbiota traits in individuals with chronic liver ailments (chronic hepatitis B, cirrhosis, HCC), scrutinizes microbiome alterations during the progression of these diseases, and assesses microbiome disparities among various Child-Pugh categories in cirrhosis sufferers.

methodsA cohort of 60 CLD patients from the Third People's Hospital of Yunnan Province were recruited from February to August 2023, together with 37 healthy counterparts. Employing 16SrDNA high-throughput sequencing, we evaluated the diversity and composition of the gut microbiota.

resultsCompared to healthy subjects, patients exhibited a reduced presence of

conclusionThe reduced abundance of short-chain fatty acid-producing bacteria in the intestine, alongside the increased abundance of gram-negative bacteria such as
