The effect of oral nutritional supplementation combined with probiotics on the liver function and intestinal microflora in lung cancer chemotherapy patients through the gut-liver axis.
Trial report in Scientific reports, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 6 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled it.
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 role of gut microbiota in cancer treatment research is receiving increasing attention. This study aims to evaluate the oral nutritional supplementation combined with probiotics on the liver function and intestinal microflora of lung cancer chemotherapy patients. An evaluation was conducted involving 113 patients with lung cancer, who were given routine hospitalization diet and oral nutrition supplement (ONS). The intervention group received probiotic supplementation, while the control group received placebo. It lasted for 21 days. The primary endpoint was the changes in liver function and intestinal microflora. Secondary endpoints included nutrition and immune status, and blood lipids. Compared with the control group, there were differences in the serum levels of ALT, AST, endotoxin and the amount of gut microbiota in the intervention group (P < 0.05). However, no significant changes were found in nutrition, immune, and the blood lipids status. ONS combined with probiotics could improve the liver function and gut microbiota status of lung cancer chemotherapy patients. We speculate that this may be due to the role of supplementing probiotics in regulating the gut-liver axis.
