Genetically Modified Lactic Acid Bacteria in the EU Food Chain: Applications, Benefits, and Risk Assessment.
Review in International journal of molecular sciences, 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
Genetically modified (GM) lactic acid bacteria (LAB) are gaining attention as tools for innovation in the food sector, health applications, and industrial processes. LAB have long been used safely due to their GRAS/QPS status, making them suitable for improving fermentation and synthesizing specific and beneficial metabolites. Advances in genomics and gene editing have significantly expanded the available tools, ranging from classical mutagenesis to site-specific recombination, homologous recombination in non-coding regions, CRISPR-based systems, and food-grade chromosomal integration. These approaches enable the insertion of desired genes and the development of engineered strains with tailored functionalities. GM-LAB are also being studied as live delivery systems for therapeutic molecules, including cytokines, hormones, antimicrobial peptides, and vaccine antigens. Engineered strains of
