1 · What the graph read from 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.

2 · The registry

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

Introduction: Despite the growing number of studies on the role of gut microbiota in treating gastrointestinal tumors, the overall research trends in this field remain inadequately characterized. Methods: A bibliometric analysis was conducted using publications retrieved from the Web of Science Core Collection (up to September 30, 2024). Analytical tools including VOSviewer, CiteSpace, and an online bibliometric platform were employed to evaluate trends and hotspots. Results: Analysis of 1,421 publications revealed significant geographical disparities in research output, with China and the United States leading contributions. Institutionally, the University of Adelaide, Zhejiang University, and Shanghai Jiao Tong University were prominent contributors. Authorship analysis identified Hannah R. Wardill as the most prolific author, while the Discussion: This study provides a comprehensive overview of research trends and highlights emerging directions, aiming to advance scientific and clinical applications of gut microbiota in gastrointestinal tumor therapy.
