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

Gram-negative bacteria such as Escherichia coli, among intestinal bacteria, have lipopolysaccharide (LPS), which induces inflammation of human intestines. However, lactic acid bacteria (LAB) can improve human intraintestinal conditions. One reason is that ingestion of LAB prevents bacterial diarrhea. This chapter describes a method of LPS elimination using lactic acid bacteria (LAB). First, the LPS concentration is assayed using an LPS assay kit with the limulus cascade reaction made by limulus amebocyte lysate. Some LABs, four bacillus strains and one coccus strain, have LPS-elimination activity. Particularly, the coccus strain Pediococcus pentosaceus eliminates LPS to 43%. The cells fractionate and eliminate four fractions: the extracellular fraction, cell membrane fraction, cytoplasm fraction, and cell wall fraction. Only the cell wall digesting fraction eliminates LPS to 45%. Results confirm that the LAB eliminates all LPS having O-antigen under a low-sugar medium condition at temperatures of 15-30 °C. This method can be used for assay of LPS elimination by LABs exactly and easily for the probiotics field.
