Article in Frontiers in microbiology, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
Background: The regulatory effects of nicotine on energy balance through central and peripheral mechanisms have been reported. However, its impact on obesity and gut microbiota at safe doses remains unclear. Results: In this study, it was found that chronic oral nicotine administration daily at relative low dose (0.5 mg/kg) significantly alleviated high-fat diet (HFD)-induced obesity phenotypes in mice, including body weight gain, fat deposits, hepatic steatosis, inflammation and metabolic dysfunction. Gut microbiota depletion and fecal microbiota transplantation (FMT) confirmed that these beneficial effects were microbiota-dependent. Metagenomic sequencing confirmed that nicotine administration reshaped gut microbiota composition, and specifically enriched the commensal genus Conclusion: Collectively, our study elucidates the critical involvement of gut microbiota in nicotine-induced obesity amelioration, uncovers a novel
