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.
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
The Gram-negative bacteria, Salmonella, cause a broad spectrum of clinical diseases in humans, ranging from asymptomatic carriage to life-threatening sepsis. We have designed an experimental model to study the contribution of genetic factors to the persistence of Salmonella Enteritidis during the late phase of infection in 129S6/SvEvTac and C57BL/6J mice. C57BL/6J mice cleared the bacteria from their reticuloendothelial system within a period of 42 days, whereas the 129S6 mice still presented a high bacterial load. Using this model, we have identified ten Salmonella Enteritidis susceptibility loci (Ses1, Ses1.1, and Ses3-Ses10) associated with bacterial persistence in target organs of 129S6/SvEvTac mice using a two-locus epistasis QTL linkage mapping approach. Significant statistical interactions were detected between Ses1 on chromosome 1 and Ses5 on chromosome 7 and between Ses1 and Ses4 on chromosome X. In this study, we functionally validated the genetic architecture of Salmonella persistence in 129S6 mice using single- (129S6.B6-Ses1.2 that combines Ses1 and Ses1.1 loci, 129S6.B6-Ses4, and 129S6.B6-Ses5) and double-congenic mice (129S6.B6-Ses1.2/Ses4 and 129S6.B6-Ses1.2/Ses5). These experiments demonstrate functional interactions between Ses1.2 and Ses4 or Ses5 that improve Salmonella Enteritidis clearance, validating the critical role played by gene-gene interactions in the contribution to bacterial clearance heritability. Improved bacterial clearance in double-congenic mice could be explained by the impact of Ses4 and Ses5 in combination with Ses1.2 on TH polarization since a TH2 bias (decreased Ifng and increased Il4 mRNA levels and reduced IgG2a immunoglobulins in the serum) was observed in 129S6.B6-Ses1.2/Ses5 mice and a TH17 (high Il17 expression) bias in 129S6.B6-Ses1.2/Ses4.
