Analysis of metabolites in human gut: illuminating the design of gut-targeted drugs.
Article in Journal of cheminformatics, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 papers.
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
Gut-targeted drugs provide a new drug modality besides that of oral, systemic molecules, that could tap into the growing knowledge of gut metabolites of bacterial or host origin and their involvement in biological processes and health through their interaction with gut targets (bacterial or host, too). Understanding the properties of gut metabolites can provide guidance for the design of gut-targeted drugs. In the present work we analyze a large set of gut metabolites, both shared with serum or present only in gut, and compare them with oral systemic drugs. We find patterns specific for these two subsets of metabolites that could be used to design drugs targeting the gut. In addition, we develop and openly share a Super Learner model to predict gut permanence, in order to aid in the design of molecules with appropriate profiles to remain in the gut, resulting in molecules with putatively reduced secondary effects and better pharmacokinetics.
