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

Background: Abnormal regulation of food intake in overweight/obese type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) patients is an important cause of energy intake imbalance, and studies have demonstrated that the "gut-brain axis" is involved in a wide range of metabolic regulation through neural and endocrine processes, which has become a key breakthrough in revealing the abnormalities of food intake behaviors in T2DM patients. Objective: Exploring the mechanism of action of abnormal regulation of ingestive desire in overweight/obese T2DM patients by integrating multimodal MRI techniques with microbiological analysis based on the gut-brain axis. Methods: Thirty-one patients with overweight/obese type 2 diabetes mellitus (Group A), 17 patients with simple obesity with abnormal glucose metabolism (Group B), and 14 patients with simple obesity with normal glucose metabolism (Group C) were recruited, and clinical data, MRI, and stool specimens were collected to analyze the correlation between the imaging indicators and the intestinal flora, and clinical data. Results: Compared with Group C, the abundance of Conclusion: Abnormal desire to ingest is the result of functional changes in brain regions, dysregulation of flora metabolism and neuroimmune interactions, providing a theoretical basis for clinical diagnosis and treatment targeting the gut-brain axis.
