1 · What the graph read from it

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.

2 · The registry

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

Many strains of enterotoxigenic Escherichia coli (ETEC) that cause diarrhoea in young piglets secrete a heat-labile enterotoxin (LTp) that binds to specific glycoconjugates on porcine intestinal epithelial cells. Binding of LTp to an appropriate glycoconjugate facilitates the uptake and trafficking of the toxin into the cell, where it stimulates intracellular changes that promote fluid secretion and diarrhoea. The objective of the current study was to identify the LTp-binding glycoconjugates on porcine intestinal epithelial cells, the natural target cells for LTp. We found that LTp binds, in an age-correlated manner, to an acidic glycosphingolipid (GSL) that co-migrated with GM1 on thin-layer chromatography (TLC), a small acidic GSL that appears to be a sulphatide, a neutral GSL that co-migrated with neolactotetraglycosylceramide (nLc4) on TLC, and two glycoproteins (36 and 205 kDa). Of these potential LTp receptors, the GM1-co-migrating GSL was detected most intensely in young animals, while the other four LTp-binding glycoconjugates were detected most intensely in older pigs (> or= 4 weeks). Since ETEC primarily cause disease in young piglets, the GM1-co-migrating GSL is the most likely candidate for a functional LTp receptor.
