Gut fungal profiles reveal phylosymbiosis and codiversification across humans and nonhuman primates.
Article in PLoS biology, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 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
Fungi in the gut microbiome, collectively known as the mycobiome, are a prevalent yet neglected component of the human holobiont. A major question in the study of gut microbial communities is whether fungi exhibit eco-evolutionary patterns that are consistent with partner fidelity and long-term associations. We compared gut fungal profiles across natural populations of humans and nonhuman primates and identified significant degrees of primate-mycobiome phylosymbiosis as well as human-enriched fungal taxa. Notably, subsets of fungi are cophylogenetic and exhibit cospeciation patterns in hominids. These findings cautiously originate a new view on the eco-evolutionary potential that can shape the composition of human and primate gut mycobiomes.
