Mediterranean Diet Effect on the Intestinal Microbiota, Symptoms, and Markers in Patients with Functional Gastrointestinal Disorders.
Article in Microorganisms, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 6 papers.
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.
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 Mediterranean diet (MD) has beneficial effects on the intestinal microbiota by the promotion of bacteria associated with a healthy gut. However, its impact on intestinal fungi, among others, is still unknown, and how it affects digestive symptoms and different biomarkers in patients with gastrointestinal (GI) disorders has hardly been explored. The present study evaluated the effect of the MD on gut microbial diversity and structure and intestinal symptoms and biomarkers after 6 weeks of dietary intervention in 46 patients with GI disorders. Dysbiosis in fungal composition and diversity was observed, with a significantly lower abundance of Sordariomycetes, Leotiomycetes, and Orbiliomycetes; a significantly higher abundance of Saccharomycetes; the Chytridiomycota and Mucoromycota phyla were significantly reduced; and the bacterial microbiota remained unchanged. In addition, various GI disorders decreased and associations between stool consistency and intestinal permeability were found with the bacterial genera
