The Role of the Microbiome and the Neurovascular Unit.
Review in The Surgical clinics of North America, 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
The gut-brain axis plays a crucial role in neurovascular diseases, linking gut microbiota to blood-brain barrier integrity, neuroinflammation, and disease progression. Conditions such as cerebral cavernous malformations, traumatic brain injury, radiation-induced damage, and stroke exhibit microbiome-driven modulation that may be relevant to explain disease variance. Microbial metabolites have been shown to influence endothelial function and secondary brain injury mechanisms. Emerging interventions of dietary modifications, probiotics, fecal microbiota transplantation, and metabolite-based therapies show promise in mitigating neurovascular damage. Future research should focus on microbiome-targeted treatments, biomarker discovery, and personalized strategies to optimize neurovascular health through gut microbiome modulation.
