Gut microbiota and its association with gastrointestinal symptoms and pharmacological treatments in a sibling-matched cohort with autism spectrum disorder.

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
Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) is a complex neurodevelopmental disorder marked by difficulties in communication, social interaction, and restricted, repetitive behaviors. The gut microbiota has emerged as a key factor in the gut-brain axis relevant to ASD. We conducted a cross-sectional study comparing the gut bacterial composition of children with ASD (n=29) and their neurotypical siblings (NT, n=29). To minimize environmental and lifestyle confounders, all pairs were 4 to 10 years old and cohabiting in the same household in Uruguay. We used full-length 16S rRNA gene (V1-V9) sequencing with the latest R10.4.1 Oxford Nanopore Technologies chemistry, enabling high-resolution microbial characterization. While overall β-diversity did not differ significantly between the ASD and NT groups, we identified specific taxonomic shifts. The ASD group was enriched in taxa like
