Short-term temperature fluctuations show minimal effects on worker gut microbiota in
Article in Frontiers in insect science, 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
Insect symbionts are key contributors to many physiological traits of their hosts. The bumblebee microbiota is mainly composed of a few taxa that, although not necessary for their survival, present a long history of coevolution with their hosts, and contribute to their nutrition and defense against pathogens. Mutualistic interactions with endosymbionts can be affected by environmental factors, such as temperature. Bumblebees have the particularity of thermoregulating their nests, which might help the maintenance of these mutualisms. The aim of this study was to analyze how environmental temperature stress affects bumblebee's microbiota composition both within the nest environment and without the effect of colony thermoregulation.
