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

The mucosal and cellular responses of mice were studied, following mucosal-route administration of recombinant Lactococcus lactis expressing tetanus toxin fragment C (TTFC), which is a known immunogen protective against tetanus. A TTFC-specific T-cell response with a mixed profile of T-helper (Th) subset-associated cytokines was elicited in the intestine, with a Th2 bias characteristic of a mucosal response. These results correlated with the humoral response, where equivalent titers of anti-TTFC immunoglobulin G1 (IgG1) and IgG2a in serum were accompanied by an elevated IgA-specific response at more than one mucosal site. The route of vaccination had an important role in determining the immune response phenotype, as evidenced by the fact that an IgG1-biased subclass profile was obtained when lactococci were administered parenterally. Stimulation of splenic or mesenteric lymph node cells with lactococci resulted in their proliferation and the secretion of gamma interferon via antigen-specific and innate immune mechanisms. The data therefore provide further evidence of the potential of recombinant lactococcal vaccines for inducing systemic and mucosal immune responses.
