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: To investigate the characteristics of salivary and supragingival plaque viromes in patients with metabolic dysfunction-associated fatty liver disease (MAFLD), and provide new insights for noninvasive oral screening and ecological intervention for MAFLD. Methods: This study included 21 MAFLD patients and 20 healthy controls. Saliva and supragingival plaque samples were collected, and metagenomic sequencing was used to analyze the characteristics of the oral virome. Results: The α-diversity and β-diversity of the salivary virome did not differ significantly between MAFLD patients and healthy individuals ( Conclusion: Differences in the species composition and structure of the oral virome between MAFLD patients and healthy individuals suggest that oral viral species could serve as potential biomarkers for diagnosing MAFLD.
