Diet Supplementation with Pomegranate Fruit Alters Distal Gut Microbiota of Healthy Female College Students.
Article in Microorganisms, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 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
Pomegranate is a fruit that grows abundantly in the Middle East and Africa. It is rich in polyphenols, sugars, fiber, and vitamins, and has long been associated in traditional and alternative medicine with numerous health benefits, including the treatment of diarrhea and gut inflammation. We assessed how regular daily intake of fresh pomegranate can affect the distal gut microbiota of young healthy female students in Egypt, a region with abundant pomegranate production and frequent occurrence of gut dysbiosis. Interrogation of microbiota structure based on the sequencing of the 16S ribosomal RNA gene amplicons indicated that subject-to-subject variability was the main driver of microbiota community differences. Nevertheless, pomegranate consumption led to changes in the abundances of several genera including increased levels of
