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

Enterococcus faecium WEFA23 was previously found effectively against adherence and colonization of Listeria monocytogenes CMCC54007, which might be closely related to its surface layer protein (SLP). In this study, the protective of SLP of E. faecium WEFA23 against infection of L. monocytogenes CMCC54007 was systemically investigated. In vitro assay showed that SLP actively inhibited L. monocytogenes internalization into Caco-2 cell line, with decreasing mRNA level of pro-inflammation cytokines and virulence factors and restoring destroyed intestinal barrier. In vivo assay through excluding SLP of E. faecium WEFA23 by 5 M LiCl represented that SLP increased body weight, reduced mortality and cell counts of L. monocytogenes CMCC54007 in tissues of mice. Further researches showed that SLP protected against L. monocytogenes CMCC54007 infection by modulation of intestinal permeability and immunity, namely, it decreased fluorescein isothiocyanate (FITC)-Dextran in serum, ameliorated destroyed colon structure, and increased number of goblet cells and protein level of TJ protein (Claudin-1, Occludin, and ZO-1) in colon. For immunity, SLP decreased number of CD4
