Role of respiratory system microbiota in development of lung cancer and clinical application.
Article in iMeta, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 13 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
Microbes play a significant role in human tumor development and profoundly impact treatment efficacy, particularly in immunotherapy. The respiratory tract extensively interacts with the external environment and possesses a mucosal immune system. This prompts consideration of the relationship between respiratory microbiota and lung cancer. Advancements in culture-independent techniques have revealed unique communities within the lower respiratory tract. Here, we provide an overview of the respiratory microbiota composition, dysbiosis characteristics in lung cancer patients, and microbiota profiles within lung cancer. We delve into how the lung microbiota contributes to lung cancer onset and progression through direct functions, sustained immune activation, and immunosuppressive mechanisms. Furthermore, we emphasize the clinical utility of respiratory microbiota in prognosis and treatment optimization for lung cancer.
