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

backgroundCardiopulmonary bypass (CPB) is commonly applied to support circulation during heart surgery but frequently causes adverse effects.

aimsThe purpose of this study was to examine the potential of probiotics to improve small intestinal mucosa barrier function after CPB.

methodsTwenty-four adult male SD rats were randomly divided into sham-operated (S), CPB-operated (CPB), and probiotic-fed (Y) groups. Diamine oxidase (DAO) activity and concentrations of D-lactic acid, endotoxin, TNFα, and IL-6 were measured in portal vein blood. IgA concentrations were determined in plasma and the small intestine. Vena cava blood and tissue samples were used to monitor bacterial growth. Intestinal epithelial ultrastructure was analyzed by transmission electron microscopy (TEM). Occludin and ZO-1 expression levels in the intestinal epithelium were detected by western blotting and immunohistochemistry, respectively.

resultsD-lactic acid, endotoxin, TNFα and IL-6 levels, DAO activity, and bacterial translocation rate were increased (P < 0.05) in CPB and Y compared to the S group. The above indices were relatively lower (P < 0.05) in Y than in CPB. Plasma and small intestinal IgA levels were significantly lower (P < 0.05) in CPB, while in Y they were significantly increased (P < 0.05) but lower than in S (P < 0.05). These results were confirmed by TEM. Consistently, occludin and ZO-1 expression levels were significantly higher in Y than in CPB (P < 0.05) but still lower compared to S (P < 0.05).

conclusionPre-administration of probiotics can improve, to some extent, intestinal barrier function after CPB in rats, and this effect is likely related to inhibition of the CPB-induced inflammatory response, improvement in local intestinal immune function, and increased expression of intestinal epithelial tight junction proteins.
