1 · What the graph read from it

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.

2 · The registry

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

backgroundLung cancer (LC) remains a leading cause of cancer-related mortality, often compounded by suboptimal chemotherapy efficacy and systemic toxicity. Emerging evidence implicates the gut microbiota in modulating tumor progression, immune function, and treatment outcomes.

methodsWe evaluated Zowell, a novel live bacterial therapeutic (LBT) developed via LiveBiom

resultsZowell monotherapy significantly reduced tumor burden, and its combination with cisplatin produced synergistic anti-tumor effects. 16S rRNA sequencing revealed enrichment of beneficial taxa (

conclusionsThese findings support Zowell as a precision microbiome therapeutic that potentiates chemotherapy through gut microbial reprogramming and tumor lipid signaling modulation, offering translational promise for enhancing immunotherapeutic response and mitigating chemotherapy-induced toxicity.
