Influence of gut microbiota on the pediatric endocrine system and associated disorders.
Review in Annals of medicine and surgery (2012), 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 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 microbiota, a complex assembly of microorganisms residing in various body systems, including the gastrointestinal tract, plays a crucial role in influencing various physiological processes in the human body. The dynamic nature of gut microbiota is especially pronounced in children and is influenced by factors like breastfeeding and antibiotic use. Dysbiosis, characterized by alterations in microbiota composition or function, is associated with several pediatric endocrine disorders, such as precocious puberty, polycystic ovarian syndrome, and diabetes mellitus. This review focuses on the intricate relationship between gut microbiota and the pediatric endocrine system. The aim of this narrative review is to critically examine the existing literature to elucidate the impact of gut microbiota on the pediatric endocrine system and associated disorders. Additionally, potential interventions, such as probiotics and current gaps in knowledge, will be discussed. Despite emerging treatments like probiotics, further research is needed to understand and validate their effectiveness in treating pediatric endocrine disorders associated with dysbiosis.
