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

backgroundWe recently showed that Bifidobacterium animalis is more prevalent within the colons of interleukin (IL)-10-deficient (-/-) mice than in wildtype (WT) animals colonized with the same specific pathogen-free (SPF) fecal contents. Here we tested the ability of this organism to cause T-cell-mediated intestinal inflammation by introducing it into germ-free (GF) IL-10-/- mice.

methodsGF IL-10-/- or WT mice were monoassociated with Bifidobacterium animalis subsp. animalis ATCC (American Type Culture Collection, Manassas, VA) 25527(T) or with B. infantis ATCC 15697(T). Inflammation was measured by blinded histologic scores of the duodenum, cecum, and colon and by spontaneous secretion of IL-12/IL-23 p40 from colonic explants. Bacterial antigen-specific CD4(+) mesenteric lymph node (MLN) T-cell recall responses were measured in response to antigen-presenting cells (APC) pulsed with bacterial lysates.

resultsB. animalis caused marked duodenal inflammation and mild colitis in monoassociated IL-10-/- mice, whereas the intestinal tracts of WT animals remained free of inflammation. B. infantis colonization resulted in mild inflammation in the duodena of IL-10-/- mice. CD4(+) MLN T cells from B. animalis monoassociated IL-10-/- mice secreted high levels of IFN-gamma and IL-17 in response to B. animalis lysate. B. animalis equally colonized the different intestinal regions of WT and IL-10-/- mice.

conclusionsB. animalis, a traditional probiotic species that is expanded in experimental colitis in this model, induces marked duodenal and mild colonic inflammation and TH1/TH17 immune responses when introduced alone into GF IL-10-/- mice. This suggests a potential pathogenic role for this commensal bacterial species in a susceptible host.
