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 gut microbiota and microbially produced short chain fatty acids (SCFAs) are increasingly linked to type 2 diabetes (T2D), particularly in the context of dietary transitions from fiber-rich to more ultra-processed foods. Data in African origin populations are lacking. We examined the cross-sectional relationships between the gut microbiota, SCFAs, and T2D by performing amplicon sequencing and targeted metabolomics from fecal samples and measuring fasting glucose, insulin, and C-peptide in 1505 African origin middle-aged adults from Ghana, South Africa, Jamaica, Seychelles, and the US. Microbial diversity and SCFAs were highest among Ghanaian and lowest among US participants. T2D was associated with lower microbial diversity, but not when stratifying by site. Differential abundance analysis (adjusted for site, sex, BMI, and age) identified microbes associated with T2D:
