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

Oral bile acids, particularly hyodeoxycholic acid (HDCA), serve as critical drivers for gut microbial community maturation in mice. In the first study, Cy5-labeled HDCA combined with fluorescence imaging revealed rapid gastrointestinal transit of HDCA in piglets, contrasting with its delayed absorption observed in mice. In the second study, the effects of the oral HDCA supplementation on microbiota-host metabolic interactions were investigated using four piglet model groups: OPM-HDCA (naturally born, raised germ-free (GF), and orally administered HDCA), OPM-CON (naturally born, raised GF, and orally administered PBS), SPF-HDCA (naturally born, raised GF, and received fecal microbiota transplantation (FMT) and HDCA), and SPF-CON (naturally born, raised GF with FMT but no HDCA). The results demonstrated that HDCA administration at 0.2 mg/mL suppressed body weight gain in piglets, which was alleviated by FMT. HDCA significantly altered gut microbiota composition in SPF piglets, markedly increasing the
