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

backgroundBee pollen is a uniquely complete nutritional product that has shown promise in alleviating obesity. While existing research has largely focused on the role of gut microbiota in obesity, the mechanisms by which bee pollen influences bile acid (BA) metabolism via microbial regulation remain poorly understood.

methodsThis study hypothesized that

resultsIn a 12-week animal experiment, SCPE supplementation significantly reduced body weight gain, lipid accumulation, and adipocyte hypertrophy, while improving insulin sensitivity and relieving hepatic oxidative stress. These benefits were attributed to an increased relative abundance of bile salt hydrolase (BSH)-producing microbes, including

conclusionsThese findings provide new insights into the mechanism by which SCPE alleviates obesity through the gut microbiota-BA axis and support the potential of bee pollen as a functional food for obesity management.
