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

The gut microbiota plays a critical role in host metabolism, immunity, and mental health. Short-chain fatty acids (SCFAs), produced through the gut microbial fermentation of dietary fibers, are essential metabolites influencing host physiology. Previous studies have suggested that dietary interventions impact SCFA production, but individual responses vary owing to gut microbiota composition. This study sought to investigate whether personalized granola, formulated based on an individual's gut microbiota, enhances SCFA production and improves metabolic and mental health outcomes. A single-arm, single-blind, before-and-after study was conducted on 99 participants. Personalized granola (BodyGranola
