Fecal microbiota transplantation in hematopoietic cell transplant and cellular therapy recipients: lessons learned and the path forward.
Review in Gut microbes. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 13 papers, 2 of them syntheses that pooled 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.
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
Disruptions to the gut microbiota have been associated with adverse outcomes including graft-versus-host disease, infections, and mortality after hematopoietic cell transplantation and cellular therapy. Evidence for causal links is accumulating, thus supporting therapeutic interventions targeting the microbiota with the goal of preventing and treating adverse outcomes. One such intervention is fecal microbiota transplantation (FMT) by which an entire community of gut microbiota is transferred to the patient with dysbiosis. As this approach in transplant and cellular therapy recipients is still in its infancy, no best approach has been defined and many open questions need to be addressed before FMT becomes a standard treatment. In this review, we highlight microbiota-outcome associations with the highest level of evidence, provide an overview of the main FMT trials, and suggest some paths forward.
