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

Elevated levels of cholesterol or triglycerides in the blood are one of the major risk factors for coronary heart disease, which is the foremost leading cause of death across the world. The aims of this study were to isolate and verify the potential probiotic strain and cholesterol-lowering capability from goat milk. The C03B-STR isolate had a broad-spectrum antibacterial property and exhibited remarkable bacteriostatic activity against Klebsiella pneumoniae ATCC 13883 (27.00 ± 1.73 mm), Pseudomonas aeruginosa ATCC 27853 (19.33 ± 0.57 mm) and Staphylococcus aureus ATCC 10832 (19.00 ± 1.00 mm) by agar well diffusion assay. This isolate is closely related to the 16S rDNA sequence of Acidipropionibacterium acidipropionici. Acidipropionibacterium acidipropionici C03B-STR can survive under acidic conditions (60.51 ± 0.02% of survival rate at pH 3.0 for 3 h) and was as bile-tolerant strain (> 80% of survival rate at 0.30% bile salts after 3 h of incubation). Furthermore, it showed significantly high cell surface hydrophobicity (74.36 ± 0.23%) and aggregation capability (> 83%) (p ≤ 0.05) but displayed low to moderate co-aggregation ability (44-61%). This strain can also be regarded as strongly adhesive (73.69 ± 0.74%) and inhibit pathogen attachment to the Caco-2 cell lines (39.20 ± 0.59-69.01 ± 0.29%). A. acidipropionici C03B-STR appeared to be safe (non-haemolytic) and controllable (sensitive to various antibiotics). Notably, it had the potential to suppress cholesterol uptake in Caco-2 cells (approximately 45%) and also reduced cholesterol level above 84% during the exponential phase under acidic conditions. Thus, A. acidipropionici C03B-STR from goat milk may be a promising novel potential cholesterol-lowering probiotic strain for application in functional foods and biotherapeutics.
