Hyperuricemia and the gut microbiota: current research hotspots and future trends.
Synthesis 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 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
Background: Hyperuricemia (HUA), found widely in humans and birds, is a key physiological factor responsible for the development of gout. In recent years, the relationship between the gut microbiota and HUA has garnered significant attention from researchers. This study aims to explore the current research hotspots, knowledge gaps, and future research trends regarding the gut microbiota and HUA. Methods: We performed a thorough search of the literature on gut flora and HUA published between 2005 and 2024 using the Web of Science and PubMed databases. The resulting data were analyzed using VOSviewer, CiteSpace, and Bibliometrix. Results: Including 735 papers in total, the study found that the number of publications in the subject increased significantly between 2020 and 2024, with 2024 being the year with the highest number of publications. The primary research countries are highlighted as China and the United States, with institutions such as the University of California, San Diego, and Qingdao University making significant contributions. Sanjay K. Nigam and Chenyang Lu have made the most important contributions as authors. Keywords analysis highlighted high-frequency terms including "gastrointestinal microbiome," "uric acid," "hyperuricemia," "inflammation," "gout," and "probiotics." In the visualization map of the keyword timeline, emerging research hotspots include "diets," "dietary fiber," "fecal microbiota transplantation," and "gut-kidney axis." Conclusion: This study is the first to conduct a quantitative literature analysis in the field of gut microbiota in HUA, revealing that the core research hotspots include disease-related microbiota characteristics, probiotic therapy, microecological intervention, and the gut-distal target organ axis. The emerging hotspots focus on dietary supplementation, fecal microbiota transplantation (FMT) treatment strategies, and in-depth research on the above organ axes. Provide valuable guidance for future research directions.
