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.

Abstract

backgroundWe previously reported that individuals with the transient receptor potential melastatin 7 (TRPM7) GA/AA genotype and consumed diets high in Ca:Mg ratio had increased risk of colorectal polyps.

objectivesThe aim was to identify whether the gut microbiota plays a role in the association of TRPM7 genotype, Ca:Mg intake ratio, and risk of colorectal polyps.

methodsWe analyzed the gut microbiota of 240 participants in a double-blind 2 × 2 factorial (TRPM7 genotype and Ca:Mg intake ratios) randomized trial by sequencing the stool, rectal swab, and rectal mucosa tissue samples of each participant.

resultsThe gut microbiota of participants with the GA genotype significantly differed from those with the GG genotype in all 3 sample types, with an altered abundance of Prevotella and Bacteroides in swab samples. Prevotella in rectal mucosa and Bacteroides in swab were associated with an increased risk of metachronous colorectal polyps. Optimizing high-diet Ca:Mg ratios to 2.3 through Mg supplementation resulted in a reduced abundance of Prevotella in rectal swabs and Bacteroides in stool samples. We identified multiple microbes in all 3 sample types linked to risk of metachronous colorectal polyps.

conclusionsOur findings indicate that the gut microbiota in stool, rectal swab, and mucosa are associated with risk of metachronous colorectal polyps, and diet changes could modify the abundance of TRPM7-related microbes. This study was registered at clinicaltrials.gov as NCT01105169 (https://clinicaltrials.gov/study/NCT01105169).
