Probiotic supplementation mitigates sex-dependent nociceptive changes and gut dysbiosis induced by prenatal opioid exposure.
Article in Gut microbes, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 6 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
The gut microbiome has emerged as a promising target for modulating adverse effects of opioid exposure due to its significant role in health and disease. Opioid use disorder (OUD) has become increasingly prevalent, specifically in women of reproductive age, contributing to an increased incidence of offspring exposed to opioids in utero. Recent studies have shown that prenatal opioid exposure (POE) is associated with notable changes to the maternal gut microbiome, with subsequent implications for the offspring's microbiome and other adverse outcomes. However, the role of the gut microbiome in mediating sex-based differences in pain sensitivity has not yet been investigated. In this study, both male and female C57BL/6 offspring were used to determine sex-based differences in nociception and gut microbial composition as a result of POE. Our data reveals significant sex-based differences in offspring prenatally exposed to opioids. The gut microbiome of opioid-exposed females showed an enrichment of commensal bacteria including
