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

This study investigates the intestinal microecological mechanisms of Huoxiang Zhengqi (HXZQ) and its potential clinical applications in alleviating gastrointestinal (GI) disorders caused by cold and humid exposure. In this study, an animal model of cold exposure with GI disorders was prepared by simulating cold and humid environmental stress (CHS). Using this model, PacBio HiFi sequencing of intestinal mucosa full-length 16S rRNA and LC-MS targeted amino acid metabolomic analysis were conducted. An interaction network between the two was constructed to assess the microecological mechanism of intervention by HXZQ. Results indicate that HXZQ accelerates the recovery of GI disorders and restores the integrity of the mucus barrier in CHS mice. PacBio HiFi full-length sequencing of intestinal mucosa suggested that HXZQ can regulate the homeostasis of intestinal mucosal microbiota in CHS mice by promoting the proliferation of probiotics such as Supplementary Information: The online version contains supplementary material available at 10.1007/s13205-025-04324-3.
