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

Microbiota metabolism generates diverse bile acids that are associated with health and disease, but the molecular targets and mechanisms of action for these metabolites have not been fully elucidated. Using bile acid photoaffinity probes and chemoproteomics, we found many protein targets of microbiota-derived secondary bile acids in mammalian cells. Of note, we discovered deoxycholic acid (DCA) binds the transmembrane domain of stimulator of interferon genes (STING), promotes its oligomerization and agonist stimulation of type I interferon signaling
