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

There is increasing evidence that nutrition during early mammalian life has a strong influence on health and performance in later life. However, there are conflicting data concerning the appropriate milk diet. This discrepancy particularly applies to ruminants, a group of mammals that switch from monogastric status to rumination during weaning. Little is known regarding how the whole genome expression pattern in the juvenile ruminant gut is affected by alternative milk diets. Thus, we performed a next-generation-sequencing-based holistic whole transcriptome analysis of the jejunum in male pre-weaned German Holstein calves fed diets with restricted or unlimited access to milk during the first 8 weeks of life. Both groups were provided hay and concentrate ad libitum. The analysis of jejunal mucosa samples collected 80 days after birth and four weeks after the end of the feeding regimes revealed 275 differentially expressed loci. While the differentially expressed loci comprised 67 genes encoding proteins relevant to metabolism or metabolic adaptation, the most distinct difference between the two groups was the consistently lower activation of the immune system in calves that experienced restricted milk access compared to calves fed milk ad libitum. In conclusion, different early life milk diets had significant prolonged effects on the intestinal immune system.
