The Nonbacterial Infant Microbiome and Necrotizing Enterocolitis.
Review in American journal of perinatology, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
Necrotizing enterocolitis (NEC) is among the most devastating neonatal illnesses of premature infants. Although it is a disease of multifactorial etiology associated with bacterial dysbiosis, several reports of viral and some fungal infections associated with NEC have been published. Despite the abundance of viruses-primarily bacteriophages, and "virus-like particles" in the normal infant gut flora, there is limited understanding of the contribution of these elements to newborn gut health and disease. This study aims to review existing evidence on normal newborn virome and mycobiome development and present insights into the complex inter-kingdom interactions between gut bacteria, viruses, and fungi in the intestinal ecosystem, exploring their potential role in predisposing the preterm infant to NEC. · We have reviewed a number of viral and fungal infections reported in association with NEC-like illnesses.. · Bacteriophages play a crucial role in the gut microbiome development, but their role in pathogenesis of NEC and potential for therapeutic use is unknown.. · Development of next-gen metagenomic tools are needed to enhance our understanding of viral diversity, bacteriophages, and the gut virome in the context of neonatal health and disease..
