Relevance of Indian Traditional Herbal Brews for Gut Microbiota Balance.
Review in Indian journal of microbiology, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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 considerable changes in lifestyle patterns primarily affect the human gut microbiota and result in obesity, diabetes, dyslipidemia, renal complications, etc. though there are few traditional safeguards such as herbal brews to maintain the ecological stability under intestinal dysbiosis. The present article is designed to collect all the scientific facts in a place to decipher the role of the Indian traditional herbal brews used to balance gut health for centuries. Computerized databases, commercial search engines, research papers, articles, and books were used to search by using different keywords to select the most appropriate published articles from 2000 onward to September 2023. A total of 1907 articles were scrutinized, 46 articles were finally selected from the 254 screened, and targeted information was compiled. Interaction of herbal brews to the gut microflora and resulting metabolites act as prebiotics due to antimicrobial, anti-inflammatory, and antioxidant properties, and modulate the pH of the gut. The effect of brews on gut microbiota has a drastic impact on various gut-related diseases and has gained popularity as an alternative to antibiotics against bacteria, fungi, viruses, parasites, and boosting the immune system and strengthening the intestinal barrier. Berberine, kaempferol, piperine, and quercetin have been found in more than one brew discussed in the present article. Practically, these brews balance the gut microbiota, prevent chronic and degenerative diseases, and reduce organ inflammation, though, there is a knowledge gap on the molecular mechanism to explain their efficacy. Indian traditional herbal brews used to reboot and heal the gut microbiota since centuries-old practice with successful history without toxicity. The systematic consumption of these brews under specific dietary prescriptions has a hope of arrays for a healthy human gut microbiome in the present hasty lifestyle with overall health and well-being.
