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

129sv mice functionally deleted of the antimicrobial resistance gene, Nramp1, were found to be as resistant as wild-type mice to infection with the virulent H37Rv strain of Mycobacterium tuberculosis, as determined by monitoring bacterial growth in major organs and recording host survival times. Death of infected mice of both types was associated with extensive infection-induced pathology in the lungs but not in other major organs. These findings are in keeping with the view that Nramp1 is of limited importance in resistance to tuberculosis in mice.
