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

Nine co-cultures of the Bifidobacterium and Lactobacillus species were tested for their ability to adhere to insoluble dietary fibre (IDF1, IDF2), soluble dietary fibre (SDF1, SDF2), and total dietary fibre (TDF1, TDF2) from two rice varieties (RR1 and RR2). Combinations of the same genus (BB + BL and LA + LR) showed 30-40 % (poor) adhesion, and combinations of different genera showed 40-50 % (moderate) adhesion, which is significantly higher (p < 0.05) than the combinations of same genus. The increase in adhesion with species from different genera suggests some synergistic activity. The microbial combinations had the ability to adhere to dietary fibre fractions as early as 30 min. Colonization of rice fibre by bacterial cells was affected by the temperature, with adhesion being higher at 37 °C than at room temperature. The optimal pH value for adhesion was 4.2-4.5. This study observed that the combinations tested had a moderate percentage of adhesion in the presence of bile, low pH (4.3-4.5) and pancreatin, irrespective of the type of co-culture. In addition, adhesion was not affected by an increase in NaCl and Tween 80. Adhesion was affected by disaccharides and polysaccharides. The amount of adhesion of co-cultures was not significantly affected by the substrate (p > 0.05). Results indicated that rice fibre fractions are suitable hosts for the probiotics tested.
