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

To develop a Pseudomonas aeruginosa vaccine that allows the host immune system to select the antigens, we hypothesized that dendritic cells (DC) pulsed with P. aeruginosa would induce protective immunity against pulmonary infections with P. aeruginosa. Incubation of murine bone marrow-derived DC with P. aeruginosa in vitro led to uptake of P. aeruginosa and activation of the DC. Spleen-derived CD4(+) cells from mice immunized with P. aeruginosa-pulsed DC showed increased proliferation, demonstrating that DC pulsed with P. aeruginosa were capable of eliciting a P. aeruginosa-specific immune response. To evaluate if P. aeruginosa-pulsed DC can induce protective immunity against P. aeruginosa pulmonary infection, DC incubated with P. aeruginosa in vitro were administered systemically to syngeneic mice, and the mice were then challenged by intrapulmonary infection with P. aeruginosa (5 x 10(4) CFU/mouse) 13 days later. Unimmunized control mice and mice who had previously received naive DC or DC stimulated with lipopolysaccharide or Escherichia coli died within 72 h. In contrast, 45% of mice receiving P. aeruginosa-pulsed DC demonstrated prolonged survival (>14 days). Finally, DC-pulsed with heat-inactivated P. aeruginosa protected CD8(-/-) but not CD4(-/-) mice, demonstrating that CD4(+) T cells were required for the DC pulsed with P. aeruginosa to induce protective immunity.
