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
Inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) is characterized by chronic intestinal inflammation and profound microbial dysbiosis, presenting significant therapeutic challenges. While fibroblast growth factor 2 (FGF2) possesses potent regenerative capabilities, its oral administration is severely hindered by rapid gastrointestinal degradation. To overcome these delivery barriers, this study investigates a novel, targeted therapeutic strategy utilizing nanoscale outer membrane vesicles (OMV/FGF2) naturally secreted during the normal growth of FGF2-engineered Gram-negative bacteria. The isolated OMV/FGF2 (120.1 nm, -13.7 mV) maintained robust structural integrity in simulated gastric fluid and demonstrated highly favorable cytocompatibility. In a dextran sulfate sodium (DSS)-induced murine colitis model, orally administered OMV/FGF2 significantly attenuated disease severity, mitigating weight loss and colon shortening. Mechanistically, OMV/FGF2 actively restored the intestinal physicochemical barrier by upregulating tight junction proteins (Occludin, ZO-1) and promoting mucus hypersecretion. Furthermore, 16S rRNA analysis revealed that OMV/FGF2 reversed microbial dysbiosis, enhancing α-diversity and enriching beneficial commensals (e.g.,
