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

Introduction: Yolkin is an egg yolk-derived protein with well-established immunoregulatory activities. In this study its potential restorative properties in cyclophosphamide (CP)-immunocompromised mice were evaluated. Material and Methods: Mice were treated with a sublethal dose of CP, followed by an access to yolkin contained in drinking water. The mice were immunised with oxazolone (OXA) for contact sensitivity (CS) and with ovalbumin (OVA) for the antibody specific response after 15 or 26 days of treatment with yolkin, respectively. The lymphoid organs were isolated for determination of immune cell numbers and their phenotypes. Results: A significant suppression of CS following CP treatment and a restoration of this response by yolkin were found. However, no effects of CP and yolkin on the antibody response were registered. In the case of CS a significant loss of T cell numbers in splenocytes was noted. The restoration of CS correlated with reversal of CD3+, CD4+ and CD8+ T cell loss to 88%, 89% and 76.6% of the values observed in the control mice. A significant depletion of the B cells, and all bone marrow cells after CP treatment, was completely restored after 26 day treatment with yolkin. Conclusion: The presented results add new information to the already described immunoregulatory properties of the protein and indicate a potential of oral yolkin in restoration of cellular immune response in immunocompromised individuals.
