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

Symbiotic flora exhibits a strong association with the pathogenesis of allergic disorders. Certain Bacteroides species have demonstrated potential in ameliorating allergic conditions. However, the specific role of Bacteroides uniformis in allergic asthma and its underlying mechanisms remain incompletely understood. This study demonstrates that oral administration of B.uniformis IM01 significantly enhanced the production of indole-3-acetic acid (IAA), suppressed airway inflammatory cell airway infiltration and aberrant T helper 2 (Th2) immune responses, and improved the epithelial barrier function in a murine model of asthma. Mechanistically, B.uniformis IM01 upregulated tryptophan metabolism, elevating IAA levels in both colon and serum, which activated the aryl hydrocarbon receptor (AhR) and induced interleukin-22 (IL-22) production. Activated AhR may inhibit NF-κB/NLRP3 signaling pathway and facilitate the splenic differentiation of Foxp3
