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 infection of C57BL/6 mice with Toxoplasma gondii triggers severe necrosis in the ileum within 7-10 days of infection. Lesion development is mediated by Th-1 cytokines, CD4+ T cells, and subepithelial bacterial translocation. As such, these features share similarity to Crohn's disease. Recently, we uncovered a role for intraepithelial lymphocytes (IELs) in mediating pathology after Toxoplasma infection. We show here that αβ and not γδ T-cell IELs mediate intestinal damage. By adoptive transfer of mucosal T cells into naive Rag1⁻/⁻ mice, we demonstrate that IELs do not function alone to cause inflammatory lesions, but act with CD4+ T lymphocytes from the lamina propria (LP). Furthermore, recipient mice pretreated with broad-spectrum antibiotics to eliminate intestinal flora resisted intestinal disease after transfer of IELs and LP lymphocytes. Our data provide valuable new insights into the mechanisms of intestinal inflammation, findings that have important implications for understanding human inflammatory bowel disease.
