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 gastrointestinal tract of animals plays an essential role in digestion and nutrient absorption. The diversity of gut microbiota is critical for maintaining the physiological functions of animals. However, current research has focused primarily on mammals; research on the gut microbiota of reptiles, particularly snakes, remains limited. This study utilized metagenomic sequencing and untargeted metabolomics to investigate the microbial community composition and functional potential in the stomach, large intestine, and small intestine of the Orange-collared Keelback (
