Gut microbiota modulation in cardiac cell therapy with immunosuppression in a nonhuman primate ischemia/reperfusion model.
Article in NPJ Regenerative medicine, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 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
Gut microbiota affect transplantation outcomes; however, the influence of immunosuppression and cell therapy on the gut microbiota in cardiovascular care remains unexplored. We investigated gut microbiota dynamics in a nonhuman primate (NHP) cardiac ischemia/reperfusion model while under immunosuppression and receiving cell therapy with human induced pluripotent stem cell (hiPSC)-derived endothelial cells (EC) and cardiomyocytes (CM). Both immunosuppression and EC/CM co-treatment increased gut microbiota alpha diversity. Immunosuppression promoted anaerobes, such as Faecalibacterium, Streptococcus, Anaerovibrio and Dialister, and altered amino acid metabolism and nucleosides/nucleotides biosynthesis in host plasma. EC + CM cotreatment favors Phascolarctobacterium, Fusicatenibacter, Erysipelotrichaceae UCG-006, Veillonella and Mailhella. Remarkably, gut microbiota of the EC/CM co-treatment group resembled that of the pre-injury group, and the NHPs exhibited a metabolic shift towards amino acid and fatty acid/lipid biosynthesis in plasma following cell therapy. The interplay between shift in microbial community and host homeostasis during treatment suggests gut microbiome modulation could improve cell therapy outcomes.
