Ketamine enantiomers and the gut microbiota: mechanisms, clinical implications, and future directions.
Review in Molecular biology reports, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
There is a complex, bidirectional interaction between the gut microbiota and the central nervous system, known as the gut-brain axis. Esketamine, as the right-handed isomer of ketamine, has been approved by the US FDA for the treatment of treatment-resistant depression (TRD), and its rapid antidepressant effect may involve modulation of gut microbiota. In addition, other ketamine isomers (such as R-ketamine) and racemic mixtures (R, S-ketamine) may also affect the gut microbiota through different pathways. This article reviews the potential regulatory mechanisms of ketamine and its isomers on gut microbiota, including anti-inflammatory effects, regulation of neurotransmitter metabolism, and intestinal barrier repair. It discusses, their clinical implications and future research directions.
