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

Pectin oligosaccharides have emerged as promising prebiotics whose biological activities are closely tied to their structural features, particularly monosaccharide composition. However, systematic experimental evidence regarding how different monosaccharide compositions collectively influence gut microbiota modulation, SCFA production, and the metabolomic responses of mixed pectin oligosaccharides remains limited. To address this gap, Pool-I (27.92% galacturonic acid, rich in neutral sugars including galactose, glucose, and arabinose) and Pool-II (98.73% galacturonic acid) were evaluated by comparison with inulin, a reference prebiotic, using an in vitro human fecal fermentation model. Microbial community structure, SCFA production, and metabolomic profiles were assessed at 12 h and 24 h via 16S rRNA gene sequencing, gas chromatography, and untargeted metabolomics, respectively. Inulin exhibited superior enrichment of Actinobacteria (predominantly
