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 microbiome-gut-brain axis signifies the intricate interplay between gut microbiome and brain, facilitated by bidirectional communication channels. The brain modulates gut function through the hypothalamic-pituitary-adrenal axis and the autonomic nervous system, while the gut influences central nervous system (CNS) function through microbial metabolites, neurotransmitters, and gut hormones. Early brain development in infants is shaped by mother to neonate microbiome transmission, mode of birth, gestational length, breastfeeding, maternal and infant antibiotic exposure, and acquired infections. Dysbiosis in the gut microbiome is associated with various neurodevelopmental disorders in children such as attention-deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) and autism spectrum disorder (ASD). In this review, we elucidate the pivotal role of the microbiome-gut brain axis in a child's neural development, exploring factors modulating this intricate interaction. Furthermore, we discuss the potential future therapeutic avenues that can support optimal neurodevelopment, such as probiotics, prebiotics, synbiotics, postbiotics, CRISPR/Cas9, fecal microbiota transplant, and phage therapy.
