Host-Microbiome Interaction in the Intensive Care Unit.
Review in Diseases (Basel, Switzerland), 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 8 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled it.
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
Critical illness profoundly disrupts the gut microbiota leading to a state of dysbiosis characterized by reduced microbial diversity and overrepresentation of pathogenic taxa such as Enterobacteriaceae and Proteobacteria. This dysbiotic shift compromises gut barrier integrity and modulates immune responses, contributing to systemic inflammation and increasing susceptibility to nosocomial infections and multi-organ dysfunction. Nutritional strategies in the ICU significantly influence the composition and function of the gut microbiota. Enteral nutrition supports the maintenance of microbial diversity and gut mucosal health, whereas parenteral nutrition is associated with mucosal atrophy and further microbial imbalance. Emerging interventions, including the administration of probiotics, prebiotics, synbiotics, and fermented products like kefir, show promise in restoring microbial equilibrium and improving patient outcomes. This review presents current evidence on the alterations of the gut microbiota in critically ill patients, explores the systemic consequences of dysbiosis, and evaluates the impact of nutritional and microbiota-targeted therapies in improving patient outcomes.
