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

The humoral and cellular responses against excretory/secretory proteins and soluble extracts of Giardia intestinalis were evaluated in the course of experimental G. intestinalis infection in BALB/c mice. Production of IgG1, IgG2a, IgA, and IgE antibodies against excreted/secreted proteins and soluble extract was detected after infection by G. intestinalis. Specific IgA antibody against E/S proteins and soluble extract form intestinal fluids in infected mice was detected by ELISA. The Western blotting identified proteins of 30, 58, 63, and 83 kDa for IgA and IgG, respectively. High proliferation rate in vitro of spleen cell and secretion of interleukin-4 (IL-4) at 21 days p.i. after stimulation with excreted/secreted proteins and low proliferative response in the presence of soluble extract in infected BALB/c mice was observed. High production of interferon gamma (IFN-γ) and interleukin-5 (IL-5) at the time of decreasing cyst output (14-21 days p.i.) in infected mice was recorded, suggesting the important role of these cytokines in the control of the infection. Interestingly, progressive and gradual increase of the interleukin-10 after stimulation with both preparations was recorded from 7 days until 28 days after infection, indicating the possible regulatory effect of these antigens on the immune response during Giardia infection. Therefore, the infection by Giardia duodenalis stimulates a mixed response Th1 and Th2, mainly stimulated by excretory/secretory antigens. The immunogenicity of these antigens may be a suitable for identification of the proteins related with the effective immune response in the course of infection by G. duodenalsis.
