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

backgroundBecause mammalian reoviruses are isolated from the respiratory tract we modeled the natural history of respiratory infection of adult and suckling mice with T1 Lang (T1L) and T3 Dearing (T3D) reoviruses.

methodsAdult and suckling Balb/c mice were infected by the intranasal route and were assessed for dose response of disease as well as viral replication in the lung and other organs. Viral antigen was assessed by immunofluorescence and HRP staining of tissue sections and histopathology was assessed on formalin fixed, H + E stained tissue sections.

resultsIntranasal infection of adult mice resulted in fatal respiratory distress for high doses (10(7) pfu) of T1L but not T3D. In contrast both T1L and T3D killed suckling mice at moderate viral dosages (10(5) pfu) but differed in clinical symptoms where T1L induced respiratory failure and T3D caused encephalitis. Infections caused transient viremia that resulted in spread to peripheral tissues where disease correlated with virus replication, and pathology. Immunofluorescent staining of viral antigens in the lung showed reovirus infection was primarily associated with alveoli with lesser involvement of bronchiolar epithelium. Immunofluorescent and HRP staining of viral antigens in brain showed infection of neurons by T3D and glial cells by T1L.

conclusionsThese mouse models of reovirus respiratory infection demonstrated age and strain dependent disease that are expected to be relevant to understanding and modulating natural and therapeutic reovirus infections in humans.
