1 · What the graph read from 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.

2 · The registry

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

HGMT is a database designed to analyze, explore, and visualize gut microbiomes from diverse tumor types. We process metagenomic datasets from 18,630 stool samples across 37 tumor types, including 2,207 samples from immunotherapy-treated patients across 12 tumor types. HGMT provides an interactive portal for querying taxonomic and functional profiles, visualizing cross-dataset differential abundance taxa in tumors, and identifying their pan-tumor associations. Our analysis reveals the capability of gut microbiota in diagnosing gastrointestinal tumors and predicting immunotherapy response for non-small cell lung carcinoma. HGMT represents a valuable resource for investigating the roles of gut microbiota in tumors and immunotherapy response.
