The role of gut microbiota in Hirschsprung's disease: from pathogenic mechanisms to microbiota-targeted therapies.
Review in PeerJ, 2026. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
Hirschsprung's disease (HSCR) is a common congenital disorder characterized by abnormal enteric nervous system development. Recent studies have demonstrated that gut microbiota and their metabolites play a significant role in the pathogenesis of HSCR. This review systematically examines the interplay between gut dysbiosis and pathophysiological alterations in HSCR, including disruptions in microbial composition, aberrant metabolite profiles, impaired intestinal barrier function, and dysregulated neuro-immune modulation. Research indicates that HSCR patients exhibit a characteristic gut microbial imbalance, which may influence the development and function of the enteric nervous system by altering the intestinal microenvironment, including metabolic profiles and immune status. Furthermore, this review explores the potential therapeutic value of microbiota-targeted interventions, such as probiotics and fecal microbiota transplantation (FMT), in HSCR treatment, providing a theoretical foundation for novel therapeutic strategies. These findings not only enhance the understanding of HSCR pathogenesis but also offer new perspectives for clinical prevention and treatment.
