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

purposeEmerging studies have reported gut microbial composition plays a key role in alleviating AD clinical symptoms during the probiotic intervention, but the correlation among clinical symptoms, immune responses and gut microbial alteration needs to be explored. Therefore, the objective was to investigate the correlation during Bifidobacterium adolescentis intervention in DNFB-induced AD mice.

methodsThe mice were randomly divided into nine groups and fed B. adolescentis for 3 weeks. At the end of the experiment, clinical and immune indicators were assessed. Flow cytometry was performed to explore the effect of B. adolescentis on regulatory T cells in the spleen. V3-V4 region of the 16S ribosomal RNA (rRNA) gene was sequenced to evaluate changes in the gut microbiota.

resultsBifidobacteria adolescentis treatments reduced ear and skin thickness and suppressed eosinophils and mast cells infiltration. Th1- and Th2-type responses were regulated and the Tregs population was promoted in the spleen by B. adolescentis treatments. Bifidobacteria adolescentis increased the relative abundance of Lactobacillus but decrease Dorea and Pediococcus. Propionic and butyric acids were increased but isovaleric acid was decreased by B. adolescentis treatment. Besides, the functional modules, such as fatty acid biosynthesis, antigen processing and presentation were upregulated by B. adolescentis Ad1 treatment compared to the DNFB group.

conclusionCollectively, these results imply that B. adolescentis with the role of immunomodulation promotes Treg differentiation and suppresses Th2 responses, and increases the proportion of Lactobacillus that is positively correlated to increase in propionic acid production, and thus has the potential for AD amelioration.
