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

aimsAsthma is characterized by chronic airway inflammation, persistent cough, wheezing, and dyspnea. This study aimed to evaluate the efficacy of Limosilactobacillus reuteri VHProbi® M07 (M07) administration in alleviate the asthma severity in a mice model. METHODS AND

resultsIn vitro studies confirmed that M07 can survive and proliferate within the gastrointestinal tract. BALB/c mice were administered M07 both before and after ovalbumin (OVA) challenge. Serum levels of OVA-specific immunoglobulin (Ig) E and IgG1, inflammatory cells and cytokines in bronchoalveolar lavage fluid were assessed, along with histopathological examination of lung tissue. Compared to the placebo (PLA) group, mice treated with M07 exhibited significantly lower levels of OVA-specific IgE and IgG1 (P < 0.01). The counts of eosinophils and neutrophils were also significantly reduced in both the pretreated (PRE) group and post-treated (POS) group compared with the PLA group (P < 0.01). Histological analysis of lung tissues verified the protective effects of M07 against inflammation, demonstrating reduced infiltration of inflammatory cells. Additionally, mice in the PRE and POS groups showed significantly increased levels of IL-10 (P < 0.01), and significantly decreased levels of IL-5, IL-13, MCP-1, eotaxin, and tumor necrosis factor-α (P < 0.01).

conclusionsOral administration of M07 mitigated key features of inflammatory responses in the OVA-induced mice asthma model. These findings suggest that M07 holds therapeutic potential for the treatment of allergic asthma.
