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

Common helminth infections promote Th2-skewed immune responses in their hosts. We have studied the role of intact carbohydrate structures on Taenia crassiceps compounds in the induction of biased type 2 and anti-inflammatory immune responses on peptide-stimulated T cells by using DO11.10 transgenic (OVA Tg) mice. While OVA Tg mice co-injected with OVA peptide (323-339) (OVA(323-339)) plus intact Taenia soluble antigens (iTSA) displayed significantly higher titers of OVA-specific IgG1 and total IgE, low amounts of these antibodies were detectable in sera from OVA Tg mice co-injected with OVA(323-339) plus periodate-carbohydrate altered TSA (paTSA). Spleen cells from OVA Tg mice failed to efficiently produce OVA-specific IFN-gamma but displayed higher IL-4, IL-5 and IL-10 production when they received OVA(323-339) plus iTSA, compared with OVA Tg mice similarly co-injected with OVA(323-339) plus paTSA. Moreover, after in vivo stimulation with OVA(323-339) plus iTSA, spleen cells did show elevated mRNA transcripts for Arginase 1, Ym1, IL-4, IL-10, TGF-beta, and Mannose Receptor (MR) genes, all them associated with Th2-type and anti-inflammatory responses. Similar results were obtained using TLR4 mutant mice. Together these findings suggest that carbohydrate components in TSA are involved in modulating immune responses to bystander antigens and that do not signal via TLR4.
