Gut Microbiota in the Regulation of Intestinal Drug Transporters: Molecular Mechanisms and Pharmacokinetic Implications.
Review in International journal of molecular sciences, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 8 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
Gut microbiota, through both its species composition and its metabolites, impacts expression and activity of intestinal drug transporters. This phenomenon directly affects absorption process of orally administered drugs and contributes to the observed inter-individual variability in pharmacotherapeutic responses. This review summarizes mechanistic evidence from in vitro and animal studies and integrates clinical observations in which alterations in gut microbiota are associated with changes in oral drug exposure, consistent with potential regulation of key intestinal drug transporters-such as P-glycoprotein (P-gp, ABCB1), Breast Cancer Resistance Protein (BCRP, ABCG2), MRP2/3 proteins (ABCC2/3), and selected Organic Anion-Transporting Polypeptides (OATPs, e.g., SLCO1A2, SLCO2B1)-by major bacterial metabolites including short-chain fatty acids (SCFAs), secondary bile acids, and tryptophan-derived indoles. The molecular mechanisms involved include activation of nuclear and membrane receptors (PXR, FXR, AhR, TGR5), modulation of transcriptional and stress-response pathways (Nrf2, AP-1) with simultaneous suppression of pro-inflammatory pathways (NF-κB), and post-translational modifications (e.g., direct inhibition of P-gp ATPase activity by
