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

Symptomatic uncomplicated diverticular disease (SUDD) is the primary clinical manifestation of diverticular disease (DD). Although gut microbiota (GM) perturbation and dietary habits are considered important factors in the development of the disease, there is currently a lack of data on the potential relationship between diet, GM profile and SUDD. An exploratory retrospective study was conducted in a SUDD cohort of 47 patients to investigate this relationship; a diverticulosis cohort of 19 patients served as the control group. Patients were stratified by their self-reported dietary habits, i.e., Mediterranean diet, predominantly plant-based diet or omnivorous diet. GM was profiled using 16S rRNA amplicon sequencing of fecal swabs. SUDD patients following a Mediterranean or predominantly plant-based diet showed higher alpha diversity and enrichment of known fibre degraders and short-chain fatty acid producers, such as members of the
