Berberine Ameliorates DSS-Induced Colitis via Regulation of Mucosal Barrier Homeostasis and Mucin-Degrading Microbiota.
Article in International journal of molecular sciences, 2026. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 papers.
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.
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
Berberine, a benzyl isoquinoline alkaloid, is used in food for its diverse spectrum of biological activities. Inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) is a widespread condition characterized by frequent occurrence and limited therapeutic success. Berberine has been shown to alleviate colitis through enhancement of the intestinal barrier and modulation of gut microbial balance. However, the further mutualistic balance mechanism between microbes and the mucus of berberine in alleviating IBD still needs to be clarified. Our findings demonstrated a strong association between berberine's therapeutic efficacy and alterations in the gut microbiota. This includes enhancements in the level of IgA-coated bacteria, Zg16, Reg3g, and Pla2g2a, all of which contribute to microbiota homeostasis. Moreover, the beneficial effect on gut barrier function of berberine was mostly attributed to
