From Clinical to Benchside: Lacticaseibacillus and Faecalibacterium Are Positively Associated With Muscle Health and Alleviate Age-Related Muscle Disorder.
Article in Aging cell, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 11 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
Sarcopenia is an age-related muscle disorder that increases risks of adverse clinical outcomes, but its treatments are still limited. Gut microbiota is potentially associated with sarcopenia, and its role is still unclear. To investigate the role of gut microbiota in sarcopenia, we first compared gut microbiota and metabolites composition in old participants with or without sarcopenia. Fecal microbiota transplantation (FMT) from human donors to antibiotic-treated recipient mice was then performed. Specific probiotics and their mechanisms to treat aged mice were identified. Old people with sarcopenia had different microbial composition and metabolites, including Paraprevotella, Lachnospira, short-chain fatty acids, and purine. After FMT, mice receiving microbes from people with sarcopenia displayed lower muscle mass and strength compared with those receiving microbes from non-sarcopenic donors. Lacticaseibacillus rhamnosus (LR) and Faecalibacterium prausnitzii (FP) were positively related to muscle health of old people, and enhanced muscle mass and function of aged mice. Transcriptomics showed that genes related to tricarboxylic acid cycle (TCA) were enriched after treatments. Metabolic analysis showed increased substrates of TCA cycle in both LR and FP supernatants.
