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

The present study aimed to evaluate the potential of cell surface and extracellular proteins in regulation of intestinal epithelial barrier (IEB) function. Eight potentially probiotic L. reuteri strains were evaluated for presence of mapA gene and its expression on co-culturing with the Caco-2 cells. The ability of untreated (Viable), heat-inactivated, 5 M LiCL treated L. reuteri strains as well as their cell-free supernatant (CFS) to modulate expression of IEB function genes (hBD-2, hBD-3, claudin-1 and occludin) was also evaluated. Caco-2 cells were treated with cell surface and extracellular protein extracts and investigated for change in expression of targeted IEB function genes. The results showed that mapA gene is present in all the tested L. reuteri strains and expression of mapA and its receptors (anxA13 and palm) increase significantly on co-culturing of L. reuteri and Caco-2 cells. Also, up-regulated expression of IEB function genes was observed on co-culturing of L. reuteri (viable, heat-inactivated and CFS) and their protein extracts with Caco-2 cells in contrast to down-regulation observed with the pathogenic strain of Salmonella typhi. Therefore, this study concludes that the cell surface and extracellular protein from L. reuteri act as an effective mediator molecules to regulate IEB function.
