Probiotic-Mediated Vitamin D Supplementation Improves the Gut Microbiota and Vitamin D Receptor Composition in Obese Rats.

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
Obesity is a complex disorder affecting metabolism and immunity, with gut microbiota and vitamin D metabolism playing key roles. This study aimed to evaluate the impact of vitamin D supplementation and probiotics on the vitamin D receptor (VDR) levels and the gut microbiota of rats given a high-fat diet as an experimental model of obesity. In this study, experimental obese rat models were used to assess the impact of vitamin D and probiotic supplements on lipid profiles, inflammation, obesity, diabetes, VDR, and gut microbiota. 24 Wistar rats (4-6 weeks) were divided into four groups: control, high-fat diet, high-fat diet with probiotic supplementation (HFD + P), and high-fat diet with probiotic and vitamin D supplementation (HFD + P + VD). Blood and fecal samples were collected from rats for analysis. Changes in BMI values, initial and final weights, and weight changes across all groups were found (
