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

Cerebral malaria (CM) is an acute, generally lethal condition characterized by high fever, seizures and coma. The genetic component to CM can be investigated in mouse models that vary in degree of susceptibility to infection with Plasmodium berghei ANKA. Using survival time to measure susceptibility in an informative F2 cross (n=257), we identified linkage to chromosome 19 (Berr5 (Berghei resistance locus 5), LOD=4.69) controlling, in part, the differential response between resistant BALB/c and susceptible C57BL/6 progenitors. BALB/c alleles convey increased survival through the cerebral phase of infection but have no quantitative effect on parasitemia during the later, anemic phase. The Berr5 locus colocalizes with three other immune loci, including Trl-4 (tuberculosis resistance), Tsiq2 (T-cell secretion of IL-4) and Eae19 (experimental allergic encephalitis 19), suggesting the possibility of a common genetic effect underlying these phenotypes. Potential positional candidates include the family of Ifit1-3 (interferon-inducible protein with tetratricopeptide repeats 1-3) and Fas.
