Gut microbiota involvement in the effect of water-soluble dietary fiber on fatty liver and fibrosis.
Article in Bioscience of microbiota, food and health, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 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 beneficial effects of water-soluble dietary fiber on liver fat and fibrosis involve the gut microbiota; however, few epidemiological studies have investigated this association. This large-scale epidemiological study aimed to determine the effect of water-soluble dietary fiber intake on liver fat and fibrosis via gut microbiota for the general population. We divided low- and high-intake groups by median daily water-soluble dietary fiber intake and matched background factors by propensity score matching for sex and age. The high-intake group had lower controlled attenuation parameters, a lower fatty liver index, and a lower mac-2-binding protein glycosylated isomer level than the low-intake group. Furthermore, in the high-intake group, the prevalences of metabolic dysfunction-associated steatotic liver disease and cardiometabolic criteria were significantly lower than in the low-intake group. In the high-intake group, there were increases and decreases in 16 bacterial species. Of them, those belonging to
