Gut microbial contributions to thermogenesis.
Review in The Journal of experimental biology, 2025. 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 role of the gut microbiota in influencing physiological processes has become increasingly evident over the past several decades. One such process, thermogenesis, has become a topic of interest in recent years owing to the threat of climate change as well as the ongoing obesity epidemic. Here, we offer an overview of current knowledge regarding the contributions of the gut microbiota to thermogenesis in ecological and biomedical contexts. We first describe how the metabolic and behavioral changes associated with the gut microbiota can lead to changes in energy balance, allowing animals to adapt to environmental stressors. We then discuss how changes in the gut microbial community composition, such as through antibiotic use, can lead to dysfunctional thermoregulation and, ultimately, disease states. Finally, we consider how microbes can be exploited to improve energy balance and propose some future directions worthy of additional study.
