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

backgroundThe growing concern over the emergence of antibiotic-resistant Helicobacter pylori infection is propelling the development of an efficacious vaccine to control this highly adaptive organism.

aimWe studied the use of a dendritic cell (DC)-based vaccine against H. pylori infection in mice.

methodsThe cellular immune responses to murine bone marrow-derived DCs pulsed with phosphate-buffered saline (PBS-DC) or live H. pylori SS1 (HP-DC) were assessed in vitro and in vivo. The protective immunity against H. pylori SS1 oral challenge was compared between HP-DC or PBS-DC immunized mice. The effect of regulatory T-cell (Treg) depletion by anti-CD25 antibody on HP-DC vaccine efficacy was also evaluated.

resultsHP-DC induced a Th1-dominant response in vitro. In vivo, HP-DC immunized mice were characterized by a mixed Th1/Th2 peripheral immune response. However, in the stomach, HP-DC immunized mice expressed a higher level of IFN-gamma compared to PBS-DC immunized mice; no difference was found for interleukin-5 expressions in the stomach. A lower bacterial colonization post-H. pylori challenge was observed in HP-DC immunized mice compared to PBS-DC immunized mice with no significant difference in gastritis severity. H. pylori-specific Th1 response and protective immunity were further enhanced in vivo by depletion of Treg with anti-CD25 antibody.

conclusionDC-based anti-H. pylori vaccine induced H. pylori-specific helper T-cell responses capable of limiting bacterial colonization. Our data support the critical role of effector cellular immune response in the development of H. pylori vaccine.
