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

purpose of reviewAn imbalance between pathogenic and protective microbiota characterizes dysbiosis. Presence of dysbiosis may affect immunity, tolerance, or disease depending on a variety of conditions. In the transplant patient population, the need for immunosuppression and widespread use of prophylactic and therapeutic antimicrobial agents create new posttransplant microbiota communities that remain to be fully defined. RECENT

findingsStudies in mice have demonstrated significant bidirectional interactions between microbiota-derived products and host immune cells. The stimulation of regulatory T cell and T helper cell type 17 cells by specific products leads to maintenance of immune homeostasis versus activation of inflammation, respectively. Dysbiosis may lead to development of antigen cross-reactivity, which may affect alloreactivity. Certain immunologic sequelae of microbiota are pronounced in chronic kidney disease, because of uremia and renal metabolism of microbiota metabolites. Dietary modifications, probiotics, and fecal microbiota transplant have been investigated for alteration of microbiota in humans. SUMMARY: Researchers have begun to identify dysbioses associated with clinical conditions, including chronic kidney disease, posttransplant infection, and rejection. This information will allow clinicians not only to select at-risk patients for early intervention, but also to develop therapies that restore the microbiota to a state of homeostasis or tolerance.
