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

Background: Gut microbiota plays a vital role in maintaining human health. The dietary index for gut microbiota (DI-GM), which reflects the diversity of gut microbiota, has not yet been studied for chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). Methods: This cross-sectional study analyzed data from adult participants in the 1999-2018 National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey. COPD was identified based on self-reported data. The DI-GM was calculated using dietary recall data. Multivariable logistic regression models were employed to assess the association between DI-GM and COPD. To evaluate the robustness of the association, subgroup and sensitivity analyses were applied. Results: Increased DI-GM was associated with a decreased prevalence of COPD (OR = 0.96; 95% CI, 0.92-0.99; Conclusion: A negative association was observed between DI-GM and the prevalence of COPD.
