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

Infection with Helicobacter trogontum, a urease-positive helicobacter isolated from subclinically infected rats, was evaluated in B6.129P2-IL10(tm1Cgn) (interleukin-10(-/-) [IL-10(-/-)]) and C57BL/6 (B6) mice. In a first experiment, IL-10(-/-) mice naturally infected with Helicobacter rodentium had subclinical typhlocolitis but developed severe diarrhea and loss of body condition with erosive to ulcerative typhlocolitis within 1 to 3 weeks of experimental infection with H. trogontum. A second experiment demonstrated that helicobacter-free IL-10(-/-) mice dosed with H. trogontum also developed severe clinical signs and typhlocolitis within 2 to 4 weeks, whereas B6 mice colonized with H. trogontum were resistant to disease. In a third experiment, using helicobacter-free IL-10(-/-) mice, dosing with H. trogontum resulted in acute morbidity and typhlocolitis within 8 days. Acute typhlocolitis was accompanied by signs of sepsis supported by degenerative hemograms and recovery of Escherichia coli and Proteus spp. from the livers of infected mice. Quantitative PCR data revealed that H. rodentium and H. trogontum may compete for colonization of the lower bowel, as H. trogontum established higher colonization levels in the absence of H. rodentium (P < 0.003). H. trogontum-induced typhlocolitis was also associated with a significant decrease in the levels of colonization by five of eight anaerobes that comprise altered Schaedler's flora (P < 0.002). These results demonstrate for the first time that H. rodentium infection in IL-10(-/-) mice causes subclinical typhlocolitis and that infection with H. trogontum (with or without H. rodentium) induces a rapid-onset, erosive to ulcerative typhlocolitis which impacts the normal anaerobic flora of the colon and increases the risk of sepsis.
