Fermented Food-Polysaccharides as Gut Health Regulators: Sources, Optimization, Structural Characteristics and Mechanism.
Review in Foods (Basel, Switzerland), 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 9 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
Polysaccharides are natural macromolecules with significant functional properties, but the application of certain natural polysaccharides is hindered by their large molecular weight, poor solubility, and limited functionality. In recent years, microbial fermentation has emerged as a sustainable, low-energy-consuming and low-pollution green biotechnology strategy, which degrades and modifies polysaccharides by generating carbohydrate-active enzymes, thereby obtaining new types of polysaccharides with lower molecular weights and stronger functions. Meanwhile, fermented polysaccharides are utilized as prebiotics by intestinal microorganisms. By regulating microbial communities and their metabolites (such as short-chain fatty acids and bile acids), fermented polysaccharides have shown potential value in maintaining metabolic homeostasis and intervening in related diseases. Based on the results of the latest research, this paper summarizes the sources, optimization of fermentation conditions, structural characteristics of fermented food-polysaccharides, with the aim of providing new insights into the utilization of polysaccharides. Meanwhile, focuses on discussing the effects of fermented polysaccharides on the gut microbiota and the mechanisms by which they intervene in disease through regulating the microbiota and its metabolites, which offered new insights and directions for the therapeutic application of fermented food-polysaccharides.
