Fecal microbiota transplant and its usefulness in hepatic disorders: a systematic review.
Review in Therapeutic advances in gastroenterology, 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
Background: Fecal microbiota transplantation (FMT) is an emerging therapeutic approach aimed at restoring gut microbial balance through the transfer of stool from healthy donors. It has gained significant attention for its role in managing gut dysbiosis-associated disorders, particularly hepatic diseases. Objective: This systematic review evaluated the therapeutic efficacy and clinical potential of FMT in the management of liver-related conditions, including recurrent Design: A systematic review of existing literature was conducted to assess the clinical outcomes, mechanisms, and challenges associated with FMT in hepatic disorders. Data sources and methods: Relevant studies were identified from peer-reviewed scientific databases, focusing on clinical trials, observational studies, and experimental research investigating the role of FMT in gut dysbiosis and liver disease. Data were analyzed to evaluate efficacy, underlying mechanisms, and safety considerations. Results: FMT demonstrated high efficacy in recurrent CDI, with cure rates exceeding 80%-90%. In hepatic disorders, FMT was associated with improved microbial diversity, enhanced gut barrier integrity, and reduced systemic inflammation, contributing to better liver function and clinical outcomes. However, variability in donor selection, potential safety risks, and regulatory limitations remain significant challenges. Conclusion: FMT represents a promising therapeutic strategy in hepatology, underscoring the critical role of the gut-liver axis. Advances such as synthetic microbiota and personalized microbiome-based therapies may further optimize its safety and efficacy, paving the way for innovative, microbiome-centered interventions in liver disease management.
