Generating gnotobiotic bivalves: a new method on Manila clam (
Article in Microbiology spectrum, 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
Understanding how microbiomes influence the physiology of animal hosts requires detailed mechanistic insights, often obtained through gnotobiological approaches. Model organisms are central to this research, offering key advantages such as experimental tractability, reproducibility, and ease of manipulation. However, there is a lack of established gnotobiotic models for the marine environment-especially for bivalves, which play a critical role in ecosystem functioning. This gap is particularly important in the context of climate change, where harnessing microbiome resilience could mitigate environmental challenges and enhance host responses. In this study, we present a protocol to generate microbiome-depleted and gnotobiotic clams (
