Ceftiofur regulates LPS-induced production of cytokines and improves LPS-induced survival rate in mice.
Article in Inflammation, 2008. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 5 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
The influence of ceftiofur on immune responses has been suggested by results of in vitro studies. This effect was studied using a murine model that measured mortality and early cytokine responses after challenge with endotoxin. To investigate the treatment of endotoxic mice with ceftiofur, mice were pretreated with ceftiofur at different times before and after challenge with a lethal dose of 30 mg/kg lipopolysaccharide (LPS). We found that 20 mg/kg ceftiofur had a significant protective effect and reduced the mortality of mice at early stages. To further understand the mechanism of action of ceftiofur, we examined plasma cytokine levels. Mice treated with LPS alone showed markedly increased plasma levels of TNF-alpha, IL-1beta, IL-6 and IL-10, whereas mice pretreated with 20 mg/kg ceftiofur showed significantly decreased plasma levels of TNF-alpha, IL-1beta and IL-6, but increased plasma levels of IL-10. These results support the idea that ceftiofur has a beneficial effect on LPS-induced endotoxemia caused by LPS through its modulation of cytokine levels. This confirms the effect of ceftiofur for the treatment of endotoxemia, which is caused by a Gram-negative bacterial infection.
