Lactobacillus plantarum UALp-05M and Reduced Inflammation Levels

Research synthesisLow evidenceLarge effect3 studies · 3 beneficial · 0 neutral · 0 harmful

Across 3 studies (all in vitro or animal models), all reported beneficial effects of Lactobacillus plantarum strains on reducing inflammation, with predominantly large effect sizes. The evidence base is small and limited to preclinical research, with only one study reaching statistical significance.

Caveats: Evidence base is small (only 3 studies) — conclusions should be considered preliminary. Available evidence is overwhelmingly positive — clinical literature in this area is subject to publication bias (null-result studies are less likely to be published or indexed). Many of the included studies did not reach statistical significance — effect may be smaller than the predominant direction suggests. All studies were conducted in non-human models (cell lines and mice), and no effective dose or form information was reported.
