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

We investigated the roles of Salmonella pathogenicity island 2 (SPI-2) and two SPI-2 effectors in Salmonella colitis and diarrhea in genetically resistant BALB/c.D2(Slc11a1) congenic mice with the wild-type Nramp1 locus. Wild-type Salmonella enterica serovar Typhimurium 14028s caused a pan-colitis, and the infected mice developed frank diarrhea with a doubling of the fecal water content. An ssaV mutant caused only a 26% increase in fecal water content, without producing the pathological changes of colitis, and it did not cause weight loss over a 1-week period of observation. However, two SPI-2 effector mutants, the spvB and sifA mutants, and a double spvB sifA mutant caused diarrhea and colitis, even though the sifA mutant was sensitive to killing by bone marrow-derived macrophages from BALB/c.D2 mice and was severely impaired in extraintestinal growth but not in growth in the cecum. These results demonstrate that systemic S. enterica infection and diarrhea/colitis are distinct pathogenic processes and that only the former requires spvB and sifA.
