Effects of bovine lactoferrin to oral Candida albicans and Candida glabrata isolates recovered from the saliva in elderly people.
Article in Odontology, 2015. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 6 papers.
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.
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
The effects of bovine lactoferrin (bLF) on the growth of Candida species and on inflammatory cytokine production in gingival keratinocytes, NDUSD-1 co-cultured with Candida strains were investigated. The results showed that bLF at 10 and 100 lg/mL significantly inhibits the growth of two C. albicans strains and two C. glabrata strains isolated from the saliva of elderly people requiring nursing care, respectively. The levels of inflammatory cytokines, interleukin (IL)-6, and IL-8 in NDUSD-1 cocultured with each of these four Candida strains were measured. C. albicans tend to have a more potent capacity than C. glabrata to induce the production of the inflammatory cytokines in NDUSD-1. The levels of IL-6 and IL-8 in NDUSD-1 co-cultured with each of Candida species were measured after addition of bLF. bLF at concentrations from 1 to 100 lg/mL significantly inhibited the production of these cytokines in NDUSD-1 co-cultured with Candida species. These findings suggest that bLF may be useful in reducing the risk of aspiration pneumonia among elderly people requiring care for whom oral care is difficult.
