Microbial dysbiosis and associated disease mechanisms in maternal and child health.
Review in Infection and immunity, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 8 papers.
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
Maternal and infant microbiome dysbiosis is associated with poor health outcomes-gut, vaginal, and placental microbiome disruptions in the gut, vaginal, and potentially placental microbiomes-though the existence of a distinct placental microbiome remains controversial-have been linked to pregnancy difficulties and neonatal infections. Dysbiosis leads to inflammation, oxidative stress, and disruptions in the gut-brain axis, which in turn affect immunological control, metabolic balance, and neurodevelopment. Maternal age, antibiotic exposure, and cesarean delivery increase microbial imbalances, raising the risk of preterm birth, gestational diabetes, and neurodevelopmental disorders. New research highlights the importance of systems-level microbial interactions in the gut-vagina axis and maternal-fetal health. Probiotics, prebiotics, and microbiota transplants may treat microbiome disorders. To reduce dysbiosis risks, research should focus on microbiome-based biomarkers, predictive AI models, and global health policy. Understanding microbial interactions at the system level is essential for maternal and child health.
