Dominant effects of the immediate environment on the gut microbiome of mice used in biomedical research.
Article in mSystems, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled it.
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
Studies using genetically engineered mouse (GEM) models are often performed over extended periods. The microbiomes of GEM colonies are expected to retain some of the microbial features present in the founder mice used to generate each GEM model and to acquire new features through dietary and environmental sources. The rate at which these processes occur over time likely varies between institutions. To assess the relative effect size of environment on the microbiome of GEMs used in biomedical research, we performed 16S rRNA metabarcoding of fecal samples from 275 distinct GEM lines (
