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 viaB gene coding for the Vi antigen of Salmonella typhi Ty2 was subcloned into expression vector pYA248. The recombinant plasmid was termed SMM202 and transformed into Salmonella typhimurium chi 4072, an attenuated delta cya delta crp mutant. Recombinant S. typimurium Vi4072 had the ability to produce Vi capsular polysaccharide and also to invade and colonize the small intestine, mesenteric lymph nodes, and spleen of BALB/c mice. Mice orally immunized with Vi4072 developed serum and secretory antibody responses to the Vi antigen, as measured by a passive hemagglutination assay. Mice developed a delayed-type hypersensitivity following a footpad injection with Vi antigen after being sensitized orally with a suitable dose of Vi4072. Immunization of mice with Vi4072 afforded complete protection against fatal infection with virulent S. typhi Ty2. All data indicate that this route of antigen delivery is effective for stimulating antibody-mediated immunity and for inducing a cell-mediated immune response in BALB/c mice. Thus, S. typhimurium Vi4072 may serve as a vaccine for protection against typhoid fever and salmonellosis caused by S. typhimurium.
