Bacterial Lipase Neutralized Toxicity of Lipopolysaccharide on Chicken Embryo Cardiac Tissue.

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
It has been shown that near all organs, especially the cardiovascular system, are affected by bacterial lipopolysaccharide via the activation of Toll-like receptor signaling pathways. Here, we tried to find the blunting effect of bacterial lipase on lipopolysaccharide (LPS)-induced cardiac tissue toxicity in chicken embryos. 7-day fertilized chicken eggs were divided randomly into different groups as follows; Control, Normal Saline, LPS (0.1, 0.5 and 1 mg/kbw), and LPS (0.1, 0.5 and 1 mg/kbw) plus 5 mg/ml Lipase. On day 17, the hearts were sampled. The expression of genes such as GATA4, NKX2.5, EGFR, TRIF, and NF-ƙB was monitored using real-time PCR analysis. Using western blotting, we measured NF-ƙB protein level. Total antioxidant capacity, glutathione peroxidase, and Catalase activity were also studied. Microvascular density and anterior wall thickness were monitored in histological samples using H&E staining. High dose of LPS (1 mg/kbw) increased the expression of TRIF but not NF-ƙB compared to the control group (p < 0.05). We found a statistically significant reduction in groups that received LPS + Lipase compared to the control and LPS groups (p < 0.05). Western blotting revealed that the injection of Lipase could reduce LPS-induced NF-ƙB compared to the control group (p < 0.05). The expression of GATA4, NKx2.5, and EGFR was not altered in the LPS group, while the simultaneous application of LPS and Lipase significantly reduced GATA4, NKx2.5, and EGFR levels below the control (p < 0.05). We found non-significant differences in glutathione peroxidase, and Catalase activity in all groups (p > 0.05), while total antioxidant capacity was increased in groups that received LPS + Lipase. Anterior wall thickness was diminished in LPS groups and the use of both lipase and LPS returned near-to-control values (p < 0.05). Despite a slight increase in microvascular density, we found statistically non-significant differences in all groups (p > 0.05). Bacterial lipase reduces detrimental effects of LPS on chicken embryo heart induced via Toll-like receptor signaling pathway.
