Fecal microbiota transplantation in chronic liver disease: Current and future state of the art.
Review in Hepatology communications, 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
Chronic liver diseases are associated with changes in gut microbiome composition and function. Early data suggest that fecal microbiota transplantation (FMT) may treat several chronic liver diseases, especially cirrhosis, hepatic encephalopathy, and alcohol-associated liver disease. Well-powered and multisite studies are needed to better understand which indications and subpopulations hold promise for FMT. At present, there is variability in the screening, processing, and administration of FMT. Some of this variability is inherent to the nature of FMT, but some of the variability could be standardized to optimize safety and efficacy. Ultimately, we may find that narrowed and donor-independent microbiome therapeutics are superior tools to provide a consistently effective result in chronic liver disease. Regulation of FMT for chronic liver disease indications in the United States will continue to require the rigid regulatory framework of other drugs, requiring an Investigational New Drug (IND) application.
