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

Precision probiotics have shown great promise as novel therapies but have not been fully realized. One major obstacle is that different strains of the same gut microbiota species can induce markedly variable phenotypic outcomes. Here, we aimed to optimize and validate in a preclinical model, a six-species precision probiotic therapy for graft-versus-host disease (GVHD), an autoimmune complication following allogeneic stem cell transplantation. We had identified these six species as associated with protection against GVHD in a prior clinical study. We isolated strains of three of the targeted taxa (
