Gut microbiota profile in adults with abdominal obesity and non-abdominal obesity: links to body composition and macronutrient intake in Semarang, Indonesia-a brief research report.
Article in Frontiers in nutrition, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 papers.
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.
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: Abdominal obesity is a significant risk factor for metabolic syndrome and cardiovascular diseases, with increasing evidence highlighting the role of gut microbiota in its development. In Indonesia, where 23.4% of adults are obese, few studies have examined the gut microbiota in relation to abdominal obesity, particularly in the context of unique dietary patterns. This pilot study investigated the gut microbiota composition in adults with abdominal obesity in Semarang, Indonesia, and its associations with body composition and macronutrient intake. Methods: This cross-sectional study was conducted in Semarang and included 46 adults aged 20-50 years, categorized by abdominal obesity status (22 with abdominal obesity and 24 without). Anthropometric measurements, body composition, and dietary intake were assessed. Gut microbiota profiles were analyzed using 16S rRNA gene sequencing of fecal samples. Findings: In the Semarang population, individuals with abdominal obesity had higher visceral fat (12.32 ± 3.44% vs. 6.96 ± 2.91%) compared to those without abdominal obesity. Conclusion: The correlation of
