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

Oral tolerance is an active process that starts with sampling of luminal antigens by the intestinal epithelial cells (IEC), followed by processing and assembly with major histocompatibility complex class II and subsequently a release of tolerogenic exosomes (tolerosomes) from the IEC. We have previously shown that tolerosomes can be isolated from serum shortly after an antigen feed, and will potently transfer antigen-specific tolerance to naive recipients. Here we study the capacity of the tolerosomes to protect against allergic sensitization in a mouse model of allergic asthma. Serum or isolated serum exosomes from tolerized BALB/c donor mice were transferred to syngeneic recipients followed by sensitization and intranasal exposure to ovalbumin (OVA). Blood, bronchoalveolar lavage (BAL) and lymph nodes were sampled 24 hr after the final exposure. The number of eosinophils was counted in BAL fluid and the levels of immunoglobulin E (IgE) and OVA-specific IgE were measured in serum. Mediastinal and coeliac lymph nodes were analysed by flow cytometry. The animals receiving serum from OVA-fed mice displayed significantly lower numbers of airway eosinophils and lower serum levels of total IgE as well as of OVA-specific IgE compared with controls. Moreover, the tolerant animals showed a significantly higher frequency of activated T cells with a regulatory phenotype in both mediastinal and coeliac lymph nodes. The results show that serum or isolated serum exosomes obtained from OVA-fed mice and administered intraperitoneally to naive recipient mice abrogated allergic sensitization in the recipients.
