Gut microbiota in the pathogenesis and treatment of inflammatory bowel disease: a critical review of mechanisms and therapeutic advances.
Review in Frontiers in medicine, 2026. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
Inflammatory bowel disease (IBD), comprising Crohn's disease (CD) and ulcerative colitis (UC), is a complex, recrudescent chronic gastrointestinal disease. The prevalence of IBD has increased globally year by year, and the exact pathogenesis remains incompletely understood. Evidence indicates that there is a strong correlation between dysbiosis of gut microbiota and the occurrence and progression of IBD. This review systematically describes recent advances in understanding the role of gut microbiota in IBD, with a particular focus on how dysbiosis contributes to pathogenesis. In addition, this review synthesizes the latest research progress and challenges of therapies of IBD targeting the gut microbiota, highlighting both their therapeutic potential and current limitations. Importantly, literature is based on targeted selection of high-quality sources, including clinical trials, meta-analyses, systematic reviews, and regulatory documents, to provide a balanced and up-to-date perspective. Emphasis is laid on the potential of microbiota-targeted therapies in IBD management.
