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

The moon jelly Aurelia coerulea does not typically regenerate appendages. A previous study found that increasing nutrient availability promotes the activation of appendage regeneration. In this study, we found that changes in nutrient availability alter microbiome composition. Genome-scale metabolic modeling of the microbial symbionts suggests that the microbiome modulation reduces the abundance of a symbiont that competes with the host for metabolic resources. Antibiotic treatment that recapitulates the microbiome shift significantly promotes regeneration. Transcriptomic analysis of the host shows an upregulation of genes involved in the arginine biosynthetic pathway, including argininosuccinate synthase and carbamoyl phosphate synthase. Exogenous arginine supplementation promotes appendage regeneration. These findings suggest that microbiome composition, influenced by nutrient availability, contributes to the activation of host regeneration, and identify a role for arginine in promoting regeneration.
