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

Intravenous infection of C57BL/6 and C57BL/10 mice with low doses of a highly virulent strain of Mycobacterium avium (ATCC 25291) led to the development of granulomas that underwent necrosis. In contrast, neither BALB/c nor DBA/1 mice developed granuloma necrosis after such infection despite a similar course of mycobacterial proliferation. Studies with C57BL/10 mice congenic for the Hc locus revealed that an intact complement C5 gene is required for granuloma necrosis. On the other hand, genetic disruption of the interleukin-10 gene in BALB/c mice made this strain susceptible to granuloma necrosis.
