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

We evaluated some aspects of the immune response to Helicobacter heilmannii in two mouse strains. Gastritis that was more severe in infected C57BL/6 mice. A proliferative response to H. pylori antigens was observed in splenocytes from H. heilmannii-positive and -negative mice, similar in the positive- and negative-BALB/c mice, but lower in the positive- than in the negative-C57BL/6 animals. A decrease in B cells and an increase in CD4+ cells after stimulation with type I H. pylori antigen and an increase in CD8+ cells after stimulation with type I and II antigens was observed in infected C57BL/6 mice. Conversely, the percentage of CD4+, CD8+, and B cells was similar in positive- and negative-BALB/c mice. These results demonstrated that the immune response is similar in H. heilmannii and H. pylori infection and strengthened the importance of host and bacterial virulence markers in the immune response to gastric Helicobacter infections.
