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

Antibiotic-resistant pathogenic bacteria and the oxidative stress related to their infections are dangerous health problems. Finding new safe, effective antibacterial and antioxidant agents is an urgent global need. Probiotics are a strong candidate for possible antibacterial and antioxidant agents. The delivery of these probiotics without any effect on gastrointestinal digestion is the most important point for their application. The encapsulation of the probiotics on nanoparticles or other supports is a well-known method for the safe delivery of the probiotics. Little information is known about the effect of the probiotic encapsulation on its antibacterial and antioxidant activity. The present study tried to investigate the effect of probiotic encapsulation on nano-chitosan on its antioxidant activity and antibacterial activity against some pathogenic bacteria. We encapsulated some known probiotic species on nano-chitosan and investigated the antibacterial activity of the nano-probiotics and free probiotics against gastrointestinal pathogenic bacteria. The antioxidant characters of the free and encapsulated probiotics were investigated in terms of DPPH radicle scavenging activity, ferric ion chelating activity, hydroxyl radicle scavenging activity, superoxide anion radicle scavenging activity, and anti-lipid peroxidation activity. Results showed the superiority of the encapsulated probiotics as antibacterial and antioxidant agents over the free ones. The encapsulation improved the antibacterial activity of Supplementary Information: The online version contains supplementary material available at 10.1007/s12088-023-01140-2.
