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

Water-soluble soybean fiber (WSSF) exerts health benefits beyond its fermentability, but its direct effects on epithelial-immune interactions remain unclear. We investigated whether WSSF regulates antimicrobial proteins (AMPs) in the small intestine and the underlying mechanisms. C57BL/6J and tuft cell-deficient Pou2f3-knockout mice were fed control or WSSF-supplemented diets, and gene and protein expression and cecal microbiota were analyzed. WSSF upregulated the epithelial AMPs SPRR2A, RELMβ, and ANG4 in the jejunum and ileum. Pharmacological inhibition of group 2 innate lymphoid cells (ILC2) or TRPM5 attenuated AMP induction and reduced IL-25, IL-13, tuft cell markers, and STAT6 phosphorylation. WSSF also failed to induce AMPs or type 2 immune markers in
