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

A 25-kDa cryptococcal deacetylase (d25) was found here to induce cell proliferation, as well as secretion of interleukin 2 and gamma interferon, but not interleukin 4, in spleen cells from d25-immunized or Cryptococcus neoformans-infected mice. The gamma interferon, but not the interleukin 2, response was required for the protective activities of d25 immunization in a murine cryptococcosis model.
