Metagenomic Analysis of Gut Microbiota Structure and Function in Adults with Subclinical Hypothyroidism: A Cross-Sectional Study in China.
Article in Microorganisms, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 papers.
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.
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
Subclinical hypothyroidism (SCH) is a condition characterized by thyroid hormone dysregulation, often associated with subtle clinical symptoms and metabolic disturbances. Emerging evidence suggests that the gut microbiota plays a crucial role in modulating thyroid function, but the microbiota-thyroid axis in SCH remains poorly understood. This study systematically investigates the gut microbiota composition, functional characteristics, and their correlation with thyroid hormone profiles in SCH patients. Using metagenomic sequencing and thyroid function assessments, we identified significant alterations in the gut microbiota of SCH patients, including a depletion of beneficial microbes such as
