Murine gut microbiota dysbiosis via enteric infection modulates the foreign body response to a distal biomaterial implant.
Article in bioRxiv : the preprint server for biology, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
The gut microbiota influences systemic immunity and the function of distal tissues, including the brain, liver, skin, lung, and muscle. However, the role of the gut microbiota in the foreign body response (FBR) and fibrosis around medical implants is largely unexplored. To investigate this connection, we perturbed the homeostasis of the murine gut microbiota via enterotoxigenic Significance Statement: The foreign body response to implants leads to chronic inflammation and fibrosis that can be highly variable in the general patient population. Here, we demonstrate that gut dysbiosis via enteric infection promoted systemic inflammation and increased immune cell recruitment to an anatomically distant implant site. These results implicate the gut microbiota as a potential source of variability in the clinical biomaterial response and illustrate that the local tissue environment can be influenced by host factors that modulate systemic interactions.
