Effect of Probiotics on Depression: A Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis of Randomized Controlled Trials
Inferred edges come from two machine sources: sweeps of open repository
metadata (mostly SSRN and Zenodo), and a bulk OpenAlex citation snapshot. Every row below is
labelled with the one it came from. Neither is a complete citation index — absence here is not
evidence of absence.
