The impact of microbial metabolites on host chromatin and epigenetic regulation.
Review in Nature metabolism, 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
The chemical diversity of histone post-translational modifications (PTMs), or histone marks, has been greatly expanded with the discovery of understudied and emerging modifications. The microbiome and microbial metabolites have been identified as crucial regulators of these novel PTMs, many of which have key roles in gene regulation. Thus, select histone marks represent a mechanism of host-microbe interaction via chromatin. This Perspective details the emerging roles of histone marks in gene regulation and host physiology. We discuss how these PTMs are regulated by microbial metabolism and the molecular mechanisms of how these microbiota-dependent histone PTMs affect host gene expression. We also highlight examples of the functional roles of these histone marks in physiology and disease, with a focus on the intestine and associated tissues. Understanding the mechanistic link between the microbiota and the host epigenome, particularly emerging histone marks, provides new avenues of how microbial metabolites influence host physiology.
