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

Selenium (Se) exists in various chemical forms, including inorganic Se, organic Se, and Se nanoparticles (SeNPs). However, the mechanisms underlying the interaction between Se and gut microbiota remain unclear. This study systematically evaluated the effects of different polysaccharide-stabilized Se nanoparticles (PS-SeNPs) using an in vitro colonic fermentation model. The results indicate that the molecular properties of polysaccharides (PS) are key factors influencing the gut microbiota-modulating effects of PS-SeNPs. Specifically, high molecular weight and positively charged PS enhance the microbial utilization of SeNPs. Chitosan-based Se nanoparticles (CS-Se) and chitosan quaternary ammonium salt-based Se nanoparticles (HACC-Se) can specifically enrich beneficial bacterial communities, such as
