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 gut microbiota plays a vital role in regulating the host's physiological functions, including metabolism and immunity. The microbial composition and metabolism are modulated by multiple factors; host sex is an important yet under-explored determinant. To investigate the sex-dependent differences in the gut microbiota within the small and large intestine, sixteen somatic mature Jiangshan black pigs (eight males and eight females) were analyzed. The ileal and colonic microbial community and metabolites were profiled using 16S rRNA gene high-throughput sequencing and gas chromatography. Distinct sex-related discrepancies were observed in both the microbial composition and metabolism of the ileum and colon. In the ileum, compared with the male group, the female group exhibited higher abundances of Unclassified
