Distinct microbiome composition and reduced interactions in patients with pancreatic cancer.
Article in Frontiers in microbiology, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 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
Introduction: The results of microbiome composition in patients with malignancy have been inconsistent across studies and are affected by various factors. This study aimed to identify microbiome composition of saliva, feces, and blood in patients with pancreatic cancer. Results: Overall, 31 patients with pancreatic cancer and 24 healthy controls were sex- and age-matched. Microbiome analysis of saliva, fecal, and blood samples was conducted using 16S rRNA amplicon sequencing. Baseline characteristics were comparable between patients and controls. Saliva showed insignificant difference in alpha diversity ( Conclusion: This study identified a distinctive microbiome in patients with pancreatic cancer, indicating the presence of
