Article in Frontiers in microbiology, 2026. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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: Bioremediation is an emerging, sustainable strategy that relies on microbial processes to detoxify environmental pollutants. Among these pollutants, heavy metals (HMs) are pervasive, non-degradable toxic elements that pose serious risks to human health. In this study, we individually evaluated three probiotic lactobacilli strains- Methods: After initial selection of the strains for their Results: Strain- and metal-specific differences in HMs sequestration emerged: Discussion: Overall, the results demonstrate a novel probiotic-based intestinal bioremediation strategy and highlight the translational potential of targeted single-strain probiotic interventions, reducing heavy metal exposure to protect gut health.
