Gut Microbiota Dysbiosis and Toxic Metabolite Pathways Linked to Childhood Obesity in Eastern China.
Article in Toxics, 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
Childhood obesity is a newly emerging public health and an emerging concern in environmental health in rapidly urbanized areas of China. This preliminary study investigated the gut microbiome composition and toxic metabolite pathways of school-aged children in Nanjing. Using 16S rRNA sequencing and PICRUSt2-based functional predictions, we observed significant microbial structural changes between the normal weight group and the overweight/obese group, although α diversity was similar. Overweight and obese children exhibited a markedly higher Firmicutes/Bacteroidetes ratio as well as an enrichment of genera such as
