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

The gut microbiota and bile acids co-regulate host metabolism through bidirectional interactions. This interaction critically influences the pathogenesis and progression of cardio-metabolic diseases (CMDs), which include diabetes, obesity, non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD), and cardiovascular diseases. Growing evidence establishes bile acid metabolism as fundamental to the pathogenesis of CMDs. Bile acids activate both the nuclear receptor FXR and the membrane receptor TGR5, which in turn influence glucose and lipid metabolism, modulate inflammatory processes, and affect vascular functions. These signaling pathways collectively link metabolic and immune networks within the cardio-metabolic axis. This review provides an integrative overview of recent findings in bile acid signaling and its cross-talk with metabolic and immune pathways in CMDs. It critically evaluates disease mechanisms, discusses therapeutic candidates targeting bile acid pathways, and highlights future directions for the precise management of metabolic-immune disorders.
