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

Immunoglobulins in secretions play a critical role in protection at mucosal surfaces. We examined the generation of viral-specific IgG and IgA in plasma and mucosal secretions of mice following systemic or mucosal immunization with lymphocytic choriomeningitis virus (LCMV), a widely used experimental model of viral infection. While there are early differences in humoral responses depending on the route of viral entry, we show that both routes generate comparably robust viral-specific IgG in plasma, vaginal, lung, and nasal secretions of immune mice. In contrast, LCMV elicited poor viral-specific IgA responses. Mice that were infected IN showed elevated viral-specific IgA in nasal and lung washes compared to IP-infected mice; however, LCMV-specific IgG overwhelmingly contributed to the humoral response in all mucosal secretions examined. Thus similarly to HIV-1, and several other mucosally-encountered microbial infections, these data suggest that LCMV infection fails to induce vigorous viral-specific IgA responses.
