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 gastrointestinal epithelium relies on activation of the hypoxia-inducible factor (HIF) to promote cell survival and maintain bioenergetic homeostasis during hypoxia. While many pathogens can activate HIF, the effects of enteric protozoa on HIF activation in gastrointestinal epithelial cells remain unclear. Giardia duodenalis, a prevalent protozoan enteropathogen, causes intestinal barrier dysfunction characterized by epithelial malabsorption, mucus depletion, altered mucin glycosylation, and microbiota dysbiosis. Findings from the present study reveal an epithelial hypoxic signature upon Giardia infection. Human intestinal epithelial cells were exposed to vehicle or Giardia duodenalis isolate GS/M under normoxic (21% O
