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

Type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2D) prevalence is rapidly increasing in India, yet microbiome signatures linked to disease progression and oral antidiabetic therapy remain underexplored. We performed full-length 16S rRNA sequencing of fecal samples from prediabetics (PDs), untreated newly diagnosed T2D (UKT2D), and clinically diagnosed T2D patients (KT2D), alongside biochemical, anthropometric, and medication data. Despite comparable glycemic control and insulin resistance between UKT2D and KT2D groups, gut microbial diversity was significantly reduced in KT2D, coinciding with antidiabetic drug use, primarily metformin.
