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

Knowledge gaps that limit the development of therapies for polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) concern various environmental factors that impact clinical characteristics. Circadian dysrhythmia contributes to glycometabolic and reproductive hallmarks of PCOS. Here, we illustrated the amelioration of Limosilactobacillus reuteri (L. reuteri) on biorhythm disorder-ignited dyslipidemia of PCOS via a microbiota-metabolite-liver axis. A rat model of long-term (8 weeks) darkness treatment was used to mimic circadian dysrhythmia-induced PCOS. Hepatic transcriptomics certified by in vitro experiments demonstrated that increased hepatic galanin receptor 1 (GALR1) due to darkness exposure functioned as a critical upstream factor in the phosphoinositide 3-kinase (PI3K)/protein kinase B pathway to suppress nuclear receptors subfamily 1, group D, member 1 (NR1D1) and promoted sterol regulatory element binding protein 1 (SREBP1), inducing lipid accumulation in the liver. Further investigations figured out a restructured microbiome-metabolome network following L. reuteri administration to protect darkness rats against dyslipidemia. Notably, L. reuteri intervention resulted in the decrease of Clostridium sensu stricto 1 and Ruminococcaceae UCG-010 as well as gut microbiota-derived metabolite capric acid, which could further inhibit GALR1-NR1D1-SREBP1 pathway in the liver. In addition, GALR antagonist M40 reproduced similar ameliorative effects as L. reuteri to protect against dyslipidemia. While exogenous treatment of capric acid restrained the protective effects of L. reuteri in circadian disruption-induced PCOS through inhibiting GALR1-dependent hepatic lipid metabolism. These findings purport that L. reuteri could serve for circadian disruption-associated dyslipidemia. Manipulation of L. reuteri-capric acid-GALR1 axis paves way for clinical therapeutic strategies to prevent biorhythm disorder-ignited dyslipidemia in PCOS women.
