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

Protective immunity and latent Mycobacterium tuberculosis infection in humans are associated with the formation of mature protective granulomas within the lung. Unfortunately, understanding the importance of such structures has been hindered by the lack of small-animal models that can develop mature granulomas. In this article, we describe for the first time, to our knowledge, the formation of mature, fibrotic M. tuberculosis-containing pulmonary granulomas in a mouse model of IL-10 deficiency (CBA/J IL-10(-/-)). Long-term control of M. tuberculosis infection in the absence of IL-10 was also associated with an early and enhanced capacity for Ag presentation and a significant increase in the generation of multifunctional T cells. Although IL-10 deficiency is known to enhance Th1 immune responses in general, we demonstrate in this study using transient anti-IL-10R treatment that it is the presence of IL-10 in vivo during the first month of M. tuberculosis infection that plays a definitive role in the inhibition of optimum protective immunity that can establish the environment for mature granuloma formation. Although the importance of IL-10 during M. tuberculosis infection has been debated, our data demonstrate that in CBA/J mice, IL-10 plays a significant early inhibitory role in preventing the development of protective immunity associated with containment of M. tuberculosis infection.
