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

Objectives: The effects of a proprietary blend of organic fruit and vegetable fibers rich in naturally occurring bound polyphenols (commercially known as NatureKnit™ Organic) on the human gut microbiome were assessed. Methods: Short-term (48 h) Results: All test products were well fermented with NatureKnit™ Organic showing slower fermentation kinetics than the purified fibers. SCFAs were significantly increased with all test products versus the negative control ( Conclusion: Overall, the obtained results indicate that NatureKnit™ Organic may have a greater and gentler prebiotic effect compared with established purified prebiotic fibers.
