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

Probiotics play a crucial role in immunomodulation by regulating dendritic cell (DC) maturation and inducing tolerogenic DCs. Akkermansia muciniphila affects inflammatory response by elevating inhibitory cytokines. We aimed to evaluate whether Akkermansia muciniphila and its outer membrane vesicles (OMVs) affect microRNA-155, microRNA-146a, microRNA-34a, and let-7i expression of inflammatory and anti-inflammatory pathways. Peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs) were isolated from the healthy volunteers. To produce DCs, monocytes were cultivated with granulocyte-macrophage colony-stimulating factor (GM-CSF) and interleukin-4 (IL-4). DCs were allocated into six subgroups: DC + Lipopolysaccharide (LPS), DC + dexamethasone, DC + A. muciniphila (MOI 100, 50), DC + OMVs (50 µg/ml), and DC + PBS. The surface expression of human leukocyte antigen-antigen D related (HLA-DR), CD86, CD80, CD83, CD11c, and CD14 was examined using flow cytometry, and the expression of microRNAs was assessed using qRT-PCR, and the levels of IL-12 and IL-10 were measured using ELISA. A. muciniphila (MOIs 50, 100) could significantly decrease IL-12 levels relative to the LPS group. The IL-10 levels were decreased in the DC + LPS group than the DC + dexamethasone group. Treatment with A. muciniphila (MOI 100) and OMVs could elevate the concentrations of IL-10. DC treatment with LPS led to a significant increment in the expression of microRNA-155, microRNA-34a, and microRNA-146a. The expression of these microRNAs was reversed by A. muciniphilia and its OMVs treatment. Let-7i increased in treatment groups compared to the DC + LPS group. A. muciniphilia (MOI 50) had a substantial effect on the expression of HLA-DR, CD80, and CD83 on DCs. Therefore, DCs treatment with A. muciniphila led to induce tolerogenic DCs and the production of anti-inflammatory IL-10.
