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

Here, we investigate in mice the immunogenicity of two antigens EgA31 and EgTrp which are expressed by the larval stage of Echinococcus granulosus. These recombinant proteins were used alone or as a mixture (EgA31-EgTrp) to immunize BALB/c mice. By flow cytometry, we have shown that the ratio CD4+/CD8+ of splenocytes were significantly higher in the antigen-immunized groups. The specific antibody in the sera and cytokine producing splenocytes was evaluated by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay. EgA31, EgTrp or EgA31-EgTrp elicited high antibody titer of IgG and IgA. Among IgG isotypes, IgG1 was predominant for each antigen tested alone or combined. The production of IL-12, IFN-gamma, IL-10 and IL-6 cytokines was significantly higher in mice immunized with recombinant proteins. Our results suggest that, in BALB/c mice, a mixed Th1/Th2, response to EgA31, EgTrp and EgA31-EgTrp is obtained. The use of both antigens separately or in combination as candidate vaccine proteins is discussed.
