Roles of Tight Junction Proteins in Intestinal Barrier Function and Health of Weaned Piglets: A Review.
Review in Veterinary sciences, 2026. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
Growth stagnation or weight loss is prevalent in weaned piglets, with post-weaning diarrhea severely compromising intestinal health, underscoring the criticality of intestinal structural integrity for preventing digestive disorders. Tight junction proteins (TJPs), core components of intestinal intercellular junctions, play indispensable roles in maintaining barrier function, nutrient absorption, and intestinal homeostasis by regulating paracellular permeability and mediating immune defense-related signaling pathways. Dysregulated TJP expression disrupts these processes and impairs piglet growth performance. Despite recent progress in characterizing TJP-mediated regulation of intestinal health in weaned piglets, key knowledge gaps remain regarding the specific regulatory mechanisms by which distinct TJP subtypes modulate intestinal microbiota-immune crosstalk. Future research should prioritize elucidating the effects of nutritional interventions on TJP expression and intestinal health, as well as the molecular mechanisms underlying TJP involvement in intestinal diseases. These efforts will provide theoretical support for developing novel feed additives and nutritional strategies to improve weaned piglet health.
