Standing on the shoulders of microbes: microbiome thermal priming buffers the effects of heatwaves on clams by preventing stress overreaction.
Article in ISME communications, 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
In the context of rapidly accelerating global warming, the rising frequency of heatwaves is driving large-scale ecological shifts, profoundly affecting organismal physiology and ecosystem functioning. Thermal tolerance is a key determinant of species resilience. Evidence from diverse model systems indicates that this tolerance can be enhanced through thermal priming, a pre-adaptive process in which organisms are exposed to sublethal heat stress. Beyond intrinsic host factors, the adaptive potential of host-associated microbiomes is increasingly recognised as a critical role in shaping organismal thermal resilience. However, the extent to which microbiomes alone can enhance host thermal tolerance remains largely unknown. Here, we used the Manila clam (
