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

The study of the microbiota and the microbiome, and specifically the intestinal one, has determined great interest due to the possible association of their alterations with numerous diseases. These include entities as diverse as Crohn's disease, autism, diabetes, cancer or situations as prevalent today as obesity. In view of this situation, different recommendations have been performed regarding the use of probiotics, prebiotics, and postbiotics as modulators of the microbiota and the microbiome, seeking both preventive and therapeutic effects, and faecal material transfer (FMT) is proposed as an alternative. The latter has emerged as the only proven beneficial intervention on the intestinal microbiome, specifically in the treatment of recurrent colitis associated with Clostridioides difficile (R-CDI). In the rest of the entities, the lowering of laboratory costs has favored the study of the microbiome, which is resolved by delivering reports with catalogs of microorganisms, metabolites or supposed biomarkers without consensus on their composition associated with healthy or diseased microbiota and the disease. There is still insufficient evidence in any disease for interventions on the microbiome beyond FMT and R-CDI. Multi- and multi-disciplinary work with extensive research and the application of artificial intelligence in this field may shed light on the questions raised currently. Ethical issues must also be resolved in light of possible interventions within the umbrella of personalized medicine.
