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

Fecal Microbiota Transplantation (FMT) has shown to possess impressive potential benefit for a wide range of clinical indications. Due to its inherent safety issues and efficacy constraints, the use of personalized FMT analogs could be a promising avenue. The development of such analogs will require a detailed understanding of their functionality, encompassing not only microbe-host interactions of the microbial taxa that are involved, but also of the ecological dimensions of the analogs and an overview of the gastrointestinal sites where these relevant microbial interactions take place. Moreover, characterization of taxa that have been lost due to diminished exposure to beneficial microbes, as a consequence of Western lifestyle, may lead to creation of future FMT analogs with the capacity to restore functionalities that we have lost.
