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

The effects of interleukin-8 (IL-8) on bovine mammary functions such as milk protein secretion and the blood-milk barrier during mammary involution were evaluated. Following the final milking, recombinant bovine (rb) IL-8 (5 or 25 microg) and a saline placebo were individually infused into the left- and right-front teat cisterns of 6 cows, respectively. Three cows without treatment at the final milking were also used as controls. Mammary secretions and blood were collected at -24, 0, 10, 24, 72, 168, 336, and 720 h after infusion. In the mammary glands infused with 25 microg of rbIL-8, the increases in somatic cell counts and in the concentrations of serum albumin, IgG1 and IgG2, and the decreases in the concentrations of alpha- and beta-casein and beta-lactoglobulin were greater than in the control glands. In the mammary glands infused with 5 microg of rbIL-8, compared to the glands infused with 25 microg of rbIL-8, these changes were moderate. These results indicate that rbIL-8 impairs the integrity of the blood-milk barrier and suppresses milk-specific protein secretions. In the cows infused with 25 microg of rbIL-8, the rectal temperature and serum haptoglobin level were transiently elevated after the infusion, showing that intramammary infusion of rbIL-8 could elicit systemic inflammation.
