Associations between the gut microbiota and the metabolism rate of tacrolimus in kidney transplant recipients during the early posttransplant period.
Observational study in Archives of pharmacal research, 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
The use of tacrolimus (TAC), a critical immunosuppressant post transplantation, is complicated by its high pharmacokinetic variability. While the gut microbiota has gained attention as a potential contributor, few studies have assessed its role in TAC metabolism variability. This study investigated the associations between the gut microbiota and TAC metabolism rates in kidney transplant recipients during the first month post transplantation-a crucial period for adjusting TAC to achieve therapeutic levels. We recruited 20 kidney transplant recipients and profiled their gut microbiota diversity and composition from stool samples collected before transplantation and at weeks 1 and 4 post transplantation via 16S rRNA sequencing. The TAC pharmacokinetic parameters were also collected. Associations between TAC metabolism status or pharmacokinetic parameters and gut microbiota diversity and composition were evaluated. Recipients with a fast TAC metabolism rate (C
