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

In this study, we investigated the effects of short-term energy loads on changes in gut microbiome-derived tryptophanase and fecal serotonin levels and their association with variations in energy absorption. This randomized crossover energy-load intervention study included 15 healthy participants subjected to three dietary conditions - overfeeding, control, and underfeeding - for eight days. The effects of the dietary conditions on energy absorption (digestible and metabolizable energy) were assessed using a bomb calorimeter. Fecal serotonin levels were assessed using LC-MS/MS, and the gut microbiota was analyzed using the 16S rRNA gene and metagenomic shotgun analysis. Significant differences were observed in digestible energy (
