Dynamic Succession of the Early-Life Gut Microbiota and the Regulatory Role of Human Milk Oligosaccharides.
Review in Nutrients, 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
Early-life nutrition and the gut microbiota interact to shape host health programming. During early-life development, spanning the neonatal period of initial gut colonization through infancy to toddlerhood, the gut microbiota undergoes dynamic succession driven by feeding patterns, host genetic background, environmental exposures, and other intrinsic and extrinsic factors, among which early feeding practices play a particularly prominent role. Among these factors, human milk oligosaccharides (HMOs), key bioactive components of human milk, contribute to the shaping of infant gut microbial ecology by selectively supporting HMO-utilizing bacteria, influencing microbial metabolism and cross-feeding, and exhibiting structure- and context-dependent effects on pathogen-host interactions, intestinal barrier function, and immune responses. This narrative review summarizes the succession patterns of the gut microbiota in early life and the core regulatory mechanisms by which HMOs shape infant gut microbial ecology, aiming to provide a conceptual basis for understanding the potential long-term health implications of early nutritional interventions.
