Modulating Metabolic Health and Physiological Functions: Advances in Dietary Interventions Targeting Gut Microbiota.
Review in Therapeutics and clinical risk management, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 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
The human gut possesses a highly complex and metabolically functional microbial community. This microbial ecosystem, often termed a "super-organism", plays a critical function in regulating the host's metabolic processes, including gut motility, energy absorption, appetite, glucose and lipid metabolism, as well as hepatic fat storage. These metabolic functions of the gut microbiota (GM) play a central role in maintaining host homeostasis and overall metabolic health. This review synthesizes findings from recent clinical and preclinical studies, focusing on the interactions between gut microbiota, metabolic functions, and dietary interventions, to provide an evidence-based overview of current knowledge and future perspectives. Evidence was compiled through a narrative review of studies indexed in PubMed, Scopus, Web of Science, and Google Scholar using prespecified keywords related to gut microbiota, metabolic syndrome, diet, and dysbiosis.Recent advancements in nutritional science and microbiology have highlighted the substantial relation between the GM and multiple pathological conditions, including metabolic syndrome (MetS). A plethora of studies predict that disruptions in the GM, known as dysbiosis, may influence the progression of diabetes, obesity, and cardiovascular diseases (CVDs). Notably, elucidating the contributions of the GM in the pathogenesis of MetS could offer promising avenues for therapeutic interventions. Herein, we review the physiological and metabolic functions of the GM and its connection to MetS pathogenesis, while also highlighting the potential molecular mechanisms underlying these observed associations. Furthermore, we discuss the influence of different dietary approaches on MetS and the impact of nutritional therapeutic strategies to support the development of beneficial gut bacteria and alleviate dysbiosis. By integrating insights from both clinical and preclinical research, this study provides a comprehensive overview of how GM modulation can support metabolic health. The possibility of tailoring nutritional interventions based on individual microbiota profiles represents a promising frontier for personalized and effective approaches to improve metabolic health.
