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

Objective: Radiation-induced intestinal injury is the most common complication following radiotherapy for pelvic tumors. Effective clinical treatments remain limited, and its underlying mechanism remains unclear. Using a mouse model, this study dynamically characterizes the progression of acute radiation-induced intestinal injury through integrated analysis of the gut microbiota and metabolome, thereby supporting the development of rational therapeutic strategies. Methods: Mice received a single 12 Gy dose of total abdominal irradiation. Feces were collected for microbiota and metabolomic analysis, and intestinal tissues were harvested at 24 h and 3 days post-irradiation. These tissues underwent both histopathological assessment and analysis of inflammatory signaling pathways. Results: Total abdominal irradiation induced severe intestinal injury. At 24 h post-irradiation, intestinal mucosal cell nuclei were fragmented and intestinal permeability increased. The damage progressively worsened, and by 3 days, villi had shortened, nuclear fragmentation was more extensive, and eosinophilic granulocytes had infiltrated the tissue. Bioinformatic analysis of microbiota data revealed gut dysbiosis during the acute injury phase, characterized by reduced Conclusion: Overall, these data indicate that radiation exposure disrupts both the gut microbiota and metabolome during the acute injury phase, reducing beneficial bacteria such as
