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

Gut microbial provisioning of essential amino acids (EAAs) represents a critical but poorly understood aspect of mammalian nutrition, with direct implications for host metabolism, growth, and disease resistance. While advances in microbiome research have highlighted the potential significance of these microbial-host nutritional interactions, direct empirical evidence quantifying actual microbial contributions to host EAA supply remains surprisingly limited, particularly under controlled experimental conditions. Here, we show using stable carbon isotope analysis of six EAAs across brain, kidney, liver, and muscle tissues that germ-free mice maintained on a high-protein diet and conventionalized mice with reconstituted gut microbiomes fed a low-protein diet for twenty days exhibit no significant differences in δ
