Microbiota diversity and differences in the respiratory tract of children with pneumonia.
Article in Pediatric investigation, 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
Importance: Although studies have examined the link between microbiota and airways, the understanding of microbial imbalances in the upper respiratory tract (URT) and lower respiratory tract (LRT) in pediatric pneumonia remains limited. Objective: To elucidate the microbial communities within these areas, shedding light on the microbiota's contribution to pneumonia progression and the underlying metabolic shifts. Methods: Pharyngeal swabs and bronchoalveolar lavage fluid samples were gathered from children with pneumonia and sequenced for 16S rDNA gene. Microbiota composition and differences between URT and LRT were analyzed. Results: Interpretation: Our study characterizes the LRT and URT microbiota in pediatric pneumonia children and links them to clinical features, enhancing our understanding of the disease's pathogenesis.
