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

Dietary fucoidan, a sulfated polysaccharide derived from brown seaweed, has attracted increasing interest for its potential to influence gut microbial and metabolic responses. However, the individual and combined effects of dietary fucoidan and exercise on host-microbiome interactions during colorectal cancer development remain incompletely understood. In this preventive study, mice received fucoidan at 300 mg/kg (F1) or 600 mg/kg (F2), alone or in combination with low-intensity exercise at 12 m/min for 30 min or moderate-intensity exercise at 15 m/min for 40 min, for six weeks before MC38 tumor induction. The interventions were associated with distinct changes in gut microbial composition and fecal metabolic profiles. Notably, the X2F1 group showed enrichment of
