Influence of Gut Microbiota on Immune Responses and Protection in Volunteers Receiving the Live Attenuated Oral ETEC Vaccine ACE257 followed by Virulent ETEC H10407 Challenge.
Article in Research square, 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
Enterotoxigenic Escherichia coli (ETEC) remains a major cause of diarrheal morbidity with no licensed vaccines. Role of gut microbiota in vaccine immunogenicity and protection was investigated using 16S rRNA sequencing from the stool samples of 27 volunteers receiving two doses of the live attenuated oral ETEC vaccine ACE527 followed by virulent ETEC H10407 challenge. Systemic and mucosal IgG and IgA responses to heat-labile toxin-B (LTB) and colonization-factor-antigen-I (CFA/I) were quantified by ELISA in serum and antibody-in-lymphocyte-supernatant (ALS). Microbiome α-diversity, β-diversity, and taxa-immune associations were evaluated using regression models, MiRKAT, and relaxed LASSO. Vaccination increased (~ 25-30%) Eubacterium_brachy_group, Family_XIII_AD3011 and Actinomyces. Higher α-diversity (inverse-Simpson) was associated with reduced ALS anti-LTB and CFA/I IgA responses, whereas β-diversity correlated with increased serum anti-CFA/I IgA. Members of Anaerovoraceae, Peptostreptococcaceae, Oscillospiraceae, and Veillonellaceae enhanced immune responses and protection against severe diarrhea and ETEC colonization, while Ruminococcaceae, Sutterellaceae, Coriobacteria, Clostridia, and Actinobacteria showed antagonistic associations.
