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

Lactoferrin (Lf) is a non-haem iron-binding glycoprotein with a molecular weight of about 80 kDa, synthesized by glandular epithelial cells and stored in the secondary granules of neutrophils. The physiological significance of Lf is related to non-specific immune defence against pathogens, immunomodulatory activity, iron homeostasis, antioxidant properties and regulation of cell growth. Lf is a bioactive component of the mammary secretions and its modulatory and defensive functions do affect the newborn and the mammary gland as well. In this work a bovine mammary epithelial cell line (BME-UV1) was used as an in vitro model of the bovine mammary epithelium to examine the protective role of exogenous bovine Lf (bLf) against the cytotoxic damage induced by bacterial lipopolysaccharides (LPS) and the endogenous bLf mRNA expression after LPS exposure. In the in vitro model used, exogenous bLf exerts a protective effect against endotoxin cytotoxicity, which could be mediated by the LPS-neutralizing capability of bLf. In addition, in BME-UV1 cells the response to LPS exposure does not involve bLf mRNA expression, suggesting that this cell line lack of functional LPS-responsive elements.
