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

Introduction: Trimethylaminuria (TMAU), also known as "fish-odor syndrome," is a rare metabolic disorder characterized by a body malodor that smells like a decaying fish. This syndrome is caused by a FMO3 liver enzyme malfunction, leading to trimethylamine (TMA) accumulation. To date, there is no definitive therapeutic treatment but only palliative care for TMAU, such as a controlled diet, taking antibiotics, or using acidic soaps to capture sweat-released TMA. Methods: Here, we describe an innovative approach for the treatment of this disorder, where the use of postbiotics/tyndallized probiotics is able to effectively inhibit the bacterial TMA lyase present, thus preventing the formation of TMA. We obtained a preparation (a mixture of tyndallized probiotics and their postbiotics) that was derived from the fermentation of Results:
