Alterations of the gut microbiota in patients with immunoglobulin light chain amyloidosis.
Article in Frontiers in immunology, 2022. 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
Background: Emerging evidence revealed that gut microbial dysbiosis is implicated in the development of plasma cell dyscrasias and amyloid deposition diseases, but no data are available on the relationship between gut microbiota and immunoglobulin light chain (AL) amyloidosis. Methods: To characterize the gut microbiota in patients with AL amyloidosis, we collected fecal samples from patients with AL amyloidosis (n=27) and age-, gender-, and BMI-matched healthy controls (n=27), and conducted 16S rRNA MiSeq sequencing and amplicon sequence variants (ASV)-based analysis. Results: There were significant differences in gut microbial communities between the two groups. At the phylum level, the abundance of Conclusions: For the first time, we demonstrated the alterations of gut microbiota in AL amyloidosis and successfully established and validated the microbial-based diagnostic model, which boosted more studies about microbe-based strategies for diagnosis and treatment in patients with AL amyloidosis in the future.
