Correlation between gut microbiota and their metabolites and the efficacy of chemotherapy combined with immunotherapy for extensive-stage small cell lung cancer.

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
Introduction: Gut microbiota has been reported to be associated with the host's immune system and immunotherapy response, as well as immune-related adverse events (irAEs). Additionally, gut microbial metabolites have various immunomodulatory effects. Our study focused on the differences in gut microbiota and their metabolites between long progression-free survival (PFS) and short PFS in patients with small cell lung cancer before and after chemotherapy combined with immunotherapy. Methods: The enrolled patients collected in our department were divided into long PFS and short PFS groups according to whether the PFS was ≥6 months, and the stool samples before and after treatment were analyzed using metagenomics and metabolomics. Results: The results showed that Discussion: Gut microbiota and their metabolites hold broad prospects for translational applications in cancer clinical management, such as the development of microbial biomarkers and the modulation of microbiota to enhance the efficacy of chemotherapy and immunotherapy.
