The Human Archaeome: Commensals, Opportunists, or Emerging Pathogens?
Review in Pathogens (Basel, Switzerland), 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 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
Archaea, one of the three domains of life, are increasingly recognized as consistent, though often underappreciated, members of the human microbiome, yet their roles in health and disease remain poorly understood. Unlike bacteria, no archaeal species have been conclusively identified as primary mammalian pathogens, but their widespread presence across diverse body sites suggests potential indirect contributions to host physiology and pathology. Current evidence is synthesized on archaeal diversity and habitat specificity across multiple human-associated sites, encompassing the gastrointestinal, aerodigestive, and urogenital tracts as well as the skin. Methanogens dominate the lower gastrointestinal tract (LGT), where they influence fermentation dynamics and methane production, while members of the class
