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

objectivesTo investigate the regulatory effect of histamine on the barrier function of intestinal mucosal.

methodsThe monolayer Caco-2 cell system in vitro and the model of hemorrhage infection in rats in vivo were established as experimental models. The amount of bacterial translocation was taken as an index of the effect of histamine and its receptor antagon, cimetidine on the intestinal mucosal barrier function.

results(1) The in vitro experiment showed that after treatment with histamine, the CFU of Escherichia coli 075 invading into Caco-2 cells were much lower than that in the control group (P < 0.05). (2) The animal experiment showed that in the histamine group (hemorrhage infection rats treated with histamine), the average numbers of bacteria in the liver and lymph nodes were much lower than that in control group (P < 0.05). The mean bacterial number in the cimetidine group (hemorrhage infection rats treated both with histamine and cimetidine) was more than that in the histamine group, but without statistical signification (P > 0.05). But the rate of translocation to the liver between histamine group (37.5%) and cimetidine group (100%) was statistically different (P < 0.05)

conclusionSmall concentration of histamine can inhibit bacteria from entering epithelial cells and inhibit intestinal bacterial translocation.
