Consumption of yoghurt favours remission after faecal microbiota transplantation for chronic pouchitis.
Article in International journal of colorectal disease, 2020. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 5 papers.
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
purposeThe gut microbiota is conceivably a key factor in the aetiology of pouchitis. Faecal microbiota transplantation (FMT) has been suggested as a promising new treatment for chronic pouchitis, where treatment options often are few. However, little is known about the influence of the diet on the clinical effects of FMT. We assessed the diet of patients with chronic pouchitis undergoing FMT to investigate the influence of diet on the clinical outcome after FMT.
methodsNine patients with chronic pouchitis were allocated to treatment with FMT delivered by enema from five faecal donors for 14 consecutive days in a 6-month prospective, open-label, single-centre cohort pilot study. A dietary questionnaire was completed at baseline for all patients and donors. Patients underwent a pouchoscopy at baseline and at 30-day follow-up, and the Pouchitis Disease Activity Index (PDAI) was assessed.
resultsPatients' diets were generally similar, when comparing patients in remission post-FMT (PDAI < 7) with those who relapsed (PDAI ≥ 7). Consumption of grains trended to be different between the two groups (p = 0.06), where patients in relapse consumed more bread products than did patients in remission. However, consumption of yoghurt was significantly different between the two groups (p = 0.04), with patients in remission consuming more yoghurt (mean 1.1 s/d vs 0.2 s/d).
conclusionGastroenterologist performing clinical studies on FMT for chronic pouchitis should be aware of dietary habits as contributing factors for the clinical effect of FMT.
