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

purposeInnate lymphocytes play a key role in maintaining the immune bowel barrier, which provides resistance to infection. However, the effects of probiotics on changes in the function of innate lymphocytes in the postoperative intestine remain known.

methodsNinety-six male SD rats were divided into the blank group and the preoperative Lactobacillus intervention group, and parts of the ileum were sampled on days 0, 3, 5 and 7 after partial small bowel resection. Distal ileum samples were evaluated using immunohistochemistry to detect IL-5, IL-13, IL-17a and IL-22.

results(1) There were more immune cells in the experimental group than in the blank group on day. (2) After the first 3 days, the levels of IL-22 and IL-5 (p = 0.024) were higher in the experimental group than in the blank group. From the third to the fifth day, the IL-5 and IL-22 levels were higher and the IL-13 and IL-17A levels were lower in the experimental group than in the blank group. From the fifth to the seventh day, the IL-5 and IL-13 levels were lower and the IL-22 and IL17A levels were higher in the experimental group than in the blank group.

conclusionsProbiotics stabilize the fluctuation of the intestinal immune system postoperatively.
