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: Constipation is a prevalent gastrointestinal disorder with limited therapeutic options that often lead to laxative dependence. Gut microbiota and their metabolic regulation represent promising therapeutic targets. Methods: In this study, we isolated and characterized exosome-like nanovesicles from the traditional Chinese herb Results: We found that CELNs administration significantly alleviated constipation phenotypes, as evidenced by increased fecal output, water content, and intestinal transit rate, alongside the restoration of colonic histology and goblet cell function. Multiomic analyses revealed that CELNs remodeled the gut microbiota by enriching GABA-producing genera, such as Discussion: In summary, our study reveals a novel mechanism through which CELNs enhance intestinal motility via the microbiota-metabolite-host axis, offering a conceptual foundation and a potential nanotherapeutic strategy for the targeted treatment of constipation by modulating microbial homeostasis.
