PROBIOTICS AS AN ADJUNCTIVE THERAPY FOR CELIAC DISEASE: SYMPTOM RELIEF AND QUALITY OF LIFE IMPROVEMENT.
Trial report in Arquivos de gastroenterologia, 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
backgroundCeliac disease is a chronic autoimmune disorder triggered by gluten ingestion in genetically predisposed individuals, leading to intestinal damage. Probiotics have been studied for their potential benefits in modulating gut microbiota and alleviating gastrointestinal symptoms, which may be beneficial in managing celiac disease (CD).
objectiveIn this way, this study evaluated the effects of probiotics compared to placebo in individuals with CD over the course of treatment.
methodsA total of 85 participants, with an average age of 40 years, were randomized into two groups using a computer-generated list: 39 receiving placebo and 46 receiving a probiotic blend of Bifidobacterium lactis CCT 7858 and Lactobacillus rhamnosus CCT 7863 (1 x 109 CFU/day) over 90 days. Participants received either a daily probiotic capsule or an identical placebo made from maltodextrin, provided by Gabbia Biotecnologia Ltda. The randomization process and group assignments were concealed from both participants and investigators.
resultsBoth groups exhibited similar demographic and clinical characteristics, with most participants symptomatic for CD and adhering to a gluten-free diet. The Bristol Stool Form Scale (BSFS) showed a predominance of normal stool forms in both groups, with a higher prevalence of type 4 in the probiotic group. Gastrointestinal Symptom Rating Scale (GSRS) scores improved significantly in the probiotic group compared to placebo. Additionally, the probiotic group showed significant improvements in emotional well-being and gastrointestinal symptoms, leading to a better quality of life, as measured by the CD-specific quality of life (CD-QOL) scores.
conclusionThese results suggest that probiotics contribute to symptom improvement and enhanced quality of life in CD patients.
