Toll-like receptor gene polymorphism and its relationship with somatic cell concentration and natural bacterial infections of the mammary gland in sheep.
Article in Folia microbiologica, 2006. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 papers.
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
Possible correlation between Toll-like receptor (TLR)-gene mutations and the susceptibility of the mammary gland to bacterial infections and also the associate breed-dependent aspects of somatic cell concentration (SCC), bacterial infection and TLR-gene mutations in sheep are described. In Polish Lowland Sheep (PLS), milk samples exceeding the level of 500/microL (i.e. 5 x 10(5) per mL) of SCC were recorded almost twice more frequently than in Polish Heath Sheep (PHS) (40 and 22.3%, respectively). The frequency of bacterial infections was also found in a similar ratio (20 and 12.7%, respectively). During detection of the TLR-gene mutation we recorded 2 alleles of TLR1, 6 alleles of TLR2 and 10 alleles of TLR4 genes in PHS sheep, while PLS sheep possessed 2, 4 and 6 alleles, respectively. Statistical analyses revealed a relationship between the specified TLR alleles, SCC and the frequency of incidence of bacterial inflammations of mammary gland. The data may serve as a benchmark for further study of TLR-gene mutation-dependent predisposition of mammary gland defensive cells to recognize the pathogen properly and initiate the immunological response, and may help in identifying one of the markers of natural resistance against sheep mastitis.
