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

backgroundDaikenchuto (TU-100), a Japanese herbal medicine, is widely used for various gastrointestinal diseases. We have previously reported that TU-100 suppresses CPT-11-induced bacterial translocation (BT) by maintaining the diversity of the microbiome. In this study we show that TU-100 modulates the immune response during BT by inducing PD-1 expression in Peyer's patches.

methodsEighteen male Wistar rats were divided into four groups: a control group; a control + TU-100 group, given TU-100 1000 mg/kg orally for 5 d; a BT group, given CPT-11 250 mg/kg intra-peritoneal for 2 d; and a TU-100 group, given TU-100 1000 mg/kg orally for 5 d with CPT-11 250 mg/kg intra-peritoneal on days 4 and 5.

resultsThe size of Peyer's patch was significantly bigger in the BT group compared to the control group (9.0 × 104 µm

conclusionTU-100 may have a protective effect against BT through PD-1 expression in Peyer's patch.
