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 relationship between alterations in brain microstructure and dysbiosis of gut microbiota in Alzheimer's disease (AD) has garnered increasing attention, although the functional implications of these changes are not yet fully elucidated. This research examines how neuroinflammation, systemic inflammation, and gut microbiota interact in male 3 × Tg-AD and B6129SF1/J wild-type (WT) mice at 6 months-old (6-MO) and 12 months-old (12-MO). Employing a combination of behavioral assessments, diffusion kurtosis imaging (DKI), microbiota profiling, cytokine analysis, short-chain fatty acids (SCFAs), and immunohistochemistry, we explored the progression of AD-related pathology. Significant memory impairments in AD mice at both assessed ages were correlated with altered DKI parameters that suggest neuroinflammation and microstructural damage. We observed elevated levels of pro-inflammatory cytokines, such as IL-1β, IL-6, TNFα, and IFN-γ, in the serum, which were associated with increased activity of microglia and astrocytes in brain regions critical for memory. Although gut microbiota analysis did not reveal significant changes in alpha diversity, it did show notable differences in beta diversity and a diminished
