Engineering the holobiont: Synthetic biology strategies for reversing bioenergetic collapse in radiation enteritis.
Review in AIMS microbiology, 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
Radiation enteritis (RE) constitutes a catastrophic collapse of the intestinal holobiont, fundamentally constraining the curative potential of abdominopelvic radiotherapy. Current clinical management, limited by a reductionist focus on host DNA damage, often overlooks the maladaptive ecological feedback loops driving chronic pathology. This review advocates for a definitive transition from empirical probiotic supplementation to microbial synthetic biology for the rational reprogramming of the gut ecosystem. We delineate strategies for thermodynamic engineering, utilizing engineered commensals as living oxygen sinks to scavenge luminal oxygen and nitrate, thereby starving proteobacterial blooms and restoring the physiological hypoxia essential for mucosal recovery.
