1 · What the graph read from 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.

2 · The registry

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

backgroundBronchial asthma (hereafter referred to as asthma) is a heterogeneous disease characterized by chronic airway inflammation, airway hyperresponsiveness (AHR), and reversible airflow limitation. Recent advancements in the "gut-lung" axis concept have elucidated the intricate immunometabolic crosstalk between the gastrointestinal tract and pulmonary system, offering novel insights into the pathogenesis and therapeutic strategies for asthma.

objectiveExploring the research progress of the "gut-lung" axis in bronchial asthma, providing new insights into the pathogenesis and treatment of asthma.

methodsThis article reviewed a large number of relevant studies, elucidating the role of the "gut-lung" axis in bronchial asthma, and further discussing the potential of the microbiota in the treatment of bronchial asthma.

conclusionGut microbiota and their metabolites exert profound effects on pulmonary immune homeostasis through immune modulation, metabolic signaling, and neuroendocrine pathways, which are critically implicated in asthma pathogenesis. Conversely, systemic immune dysregulation in asthma may reciprocally induce intestinal barrier dysfunction. Asthma is a variable disease here. It may be that some of this variability relates to different diets or environmental/gut exposures although this needs to be confirmed in human studies. This review comprehensively delineates the mechanistic role of the gut-lung axis in asthma, encompassing microbiota-immune system interactions, regulatory effects of microbial-derived metabolites such as short-chain fatty acids (SCFAs) and bile acids, and microbiota-targeted therapeutic approaches including probiotics, dietary interventions, and metabolite-based therapies. Furthermore, we also discuss the limitations and future development directions of current research to provide new ideas for precision treatment of asthma.
