Profiling the Fungal Microbiome after Fecal Microbiota Transplantation for Graft-versus-Host Disease: Insights from a Phase 1 Interventional Study.
Article in Transplantation and cellular therapy, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 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
Disruption of the intestinal bacterial microbiota is frequently observed in the context of allogeneic hematopoietic cell transplantation (HCT) and is particularly pronounced in patients who develop graft-versus-host disease (GVHD). Donor fecal microbiota transplantation (FMT) restores gut microbial diversity and reduces GVHD in HCT recipients. The composition of the intestinal fungal community in patients with GVHD, and whether fungal taxa are transferred during FMT are currently unknown. We performed a secondary analysis of our clinical trial of FMT in patients with steroid-refractory GVHD with a focus on the mycobiota. We characterized the fecal mycobiota of 17 patients and healthy FMT donors using internal transcribed spacer amplicon sequencing. The donor who provided the majority of FMT material in our study represents an n-of-one study of the intestinal flora over time. In this donor, mycobiota composition fluctuated over time while the bacterial microbiota remained stable over 16 months. Fungal DNA was detected more frequently in baseline stool samples from patients with steroid-refractory GVHD than in patients with steroid-dependent GVHD. We could detect fungal taxa in the majority of samples but did not see evidence of mycobiota transfer from donor to recipient. Our study demonstrates the feasibility of profiling the mycobiota alongside the more traditional bacterial microbiota, establishes the methodology, and provides a first insight into the mycobiota composition of patients with GVHD.
