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

Differential aspects of the host immune response generated by Trypanosoma cruzi infection were examined in two different mouse strains, BALB/c (haplotype H2-Kd) which does not overcome the acute phase of the infection and C57BL/6 (haplotype H2-Kb) which survives to the acute phase. After infection an increase in CD3+ T cells was observed in both mouse strains in the peritoneal cavity. However, while the CD3+ T cells from the BALB/c mice showed an increase in the IL-4 cytokine expression level, the same type of cells from the C57BL/6 mice showed an increase in IFN-gamma expression. In addition, only the macrophages from the C57BL/6 mice were activated secreting IL-12 and TNF-alpha and producing, moreover, high levels of nitrites. It was observed that also after parasite infection the expression of macrophage and dendritic cells CD40 and CD86 co-stimulation molecules from the spleen were diminished in BALB/c but not in C57BL/6 mice. In correlation with this observation the macrophages from the spleen of infected BALB/c mice secreted lower concentrations of nitrites than the C57BL/6 mouse cells. Also, the spleen dendritic cells from infected BALB/c mice had a small potential to present alloantigens in contrast to that observed in the infected C57BL/6 mouse cells.
