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

While our current knowledge of probiotic interaction in the developing gut remains poorly understood, emerging science is providing greater biological insight into their mechanism of action and therapeutic potential for human disease. Given their beneficial effects, probiotics remain promising agents in neonatal gastrointestinal disorders. Probiotics may restore or supply essential bacterial strains needed for gut maturation and homeostasis, particularly in hosts where this process has been disrupted. Here we highlight the unique characteristics of developing intestinal epithelia with a focus on gut development and colonization as well as the inflammatory propensity of immature epithelia. Additionally, we review potential mechanisms of beneficial probiotic interaction with immature intestinal epithelia including immunomodulation, upregulation of cytoprotective genes, prevention and regulation of apoptosis and maintenance of barrier function. Improved knowledge of gut-probiotic interaction in developing epithelia will allow for a better understanding of how probiotics exert their beneficial effects and help guide their therapeutic use.
