Fecal microbiota transplantation for intestinal rehabilitation after GI bleeding and perforation post-cardiac transplant: a case report.
Article in Frontiers in medicine, 2026. 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
Gastrointestinal complications present a critical challenge following heart transplantation. These issues often stem from multifactorial mechanisms, including immunosuppressive therapy and physiological stress, which compromise mucosal defenses. We report a case of a 53-year-old heart transplant recipient who developed severe gastrointestinal bleeding and perforation due to stress ulcers. Following embolization therapy, the clinical course was further complicated by secondary intestinal cicatricial obstruction, necessitating effective intestinal rehabilitation. To address the resulting malabsorption and facilitate recovery while maintaining immunosuppressive stability, fecal microbiota transplantation (FMT) was employed to restore gut microbiota diversity. This intervention successfully promoted intestinal functional recovery. This case offers a practical reference for managing complex post-transplant gastrointestinal complications, highlighting the therapeutic potential of FMT.
