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

Parkinson's disease (PD) is the second most common neurodegenerative disorder, characterized by motor dysfunction coupled with gastrointestinal disturbances. Recent studies implicate the gut microbiome with the development of PD, yet pinpointing the exact microbial players is still to be determined. This meta-analysis is the first to consolidate five homogenous case-control studies, covering the same variable regions of the 16S rRNA of 1007 fecal samples. Utilizing our unified pipeline, we identified several key players potentially contributing to PD. Our findings reveal higher microbial diversity characterized by elevated levels GABA consuming species particularly Evtepia gabavorous, contributing to neuronal excitability. We also report the abundance of the proinflammatory Klebsiella variicola and the H
