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

Cryptosporidium parvum TU502, a genotype 1 isolate of human origin, was passaged through three different mammalian hosts, including humans, pigs, and calves. It was confirmed to be genotype 1 by PCR-restriction fragment length polymorphism analysis of the Cryptosporidium oocyst wall protein gene, direct sequencing of PCR fragments of the small subunit rRNA and beta-tubulin genes, and microsatellite analysis. This isolate was shown to be genetically stable when passaged through the three mammalian species, with no evidence of the emergence of new subpopulations as observed by a genotype-specific PCR assay. TU502 oocysts from different sources failed to infect gamma interferon knockout mice, a characteristic of genotype 1 isolates. The genotypic and phenotypic characterization of TU502 is significant since it is the isolate selected to sequence the genome of C. parvum genotype 1 and is currently used in several research projects including human volunteer studies.
