Postbiotic potential of Lactococcus lactis CNCM I-5388 in alleviating visceral pain in female rat through GABA production: The innovative concept of the "active-GAD bag".

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.
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
Irritable bowel syndrome (IBS) is a multifactorial disorder of the gut-brain axis, characterized by visceral hypersensitivity (VH). Psychobiotics, through GABA synthesis, are good candidates to alleviate gastrointestinal discomfort. Here, we analyzed the GABA-producer Lactococcus lactis CNCM I-5388 as an active-enzyme postbiotic to relieve VH mediated by psychological stress. L. lactis CNCM I-5388 was inactivated by ethanol while maintaining its glutamate decarboxylase (GAD) activity. This EtOH-treated nonviable form was given daily orally for 1, 5, or 10 days to female Wistar rats in comparison with viable L. lactis CNCM I-5388 or vehicle. Visceral sensitivity was measured by electromyography before and after partial restraint stress (PRS). GABA was quantified in the stomach collected from rats and in the gastric compartment of TIM-1 human gut model in fed state. A daily treatment for 5 and 10 days by L. lactis CNCM I-5388 both in its viable and nonviable forms counteracted VH promoted by PRS. However, only viable L. lactis CNCM I-5388 tended to reduce VH after a single administration. After 5-day treatment, only under PRS conditions, the production of GABA within the stomach was enhanced in rats treated with viable or nonviable L. lactis CNCM I-5388. This increase was confirmed by using the TIM-1 human gut model. We found that a postbiotic with an active-GAD enzyme of L. lactis CNCM I-5388, similarly to its viable psychobiotic form, exerts anti-VH properties in an IBS-like rat model. These effects are associated with GABA production in the stomach where the low pH promotes GAD activity.
