Sex-determined susceptibility and differential MUC2 mRNA expression during the course of murine intestinal eimeriosis.
Article in Parasitology research, 2015. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 7 papers.
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
Parasitic diseases differ in prevalence, course, and severity between males and females. The study was designed to compare males with females for the susceptibility to Eimeria papillata infection as well as the expression of the mucin gene, MUC2. Oocysts output was detected to be more in the feces of male mice (3.5 × 10(4) ± 4000 oocysts/g feces) than in females (2 × 10(4) ± 2000 oocysts/g feces). In addition, infected males showed a significant higher number of meronts, gamonts, and developing oocysts compared to infected female mice. Moreover, E. papillata induced a marked goblet cell hypoplasia where the jejuna of infected male mice contained lower numbers of goblet cells per ten villus-crypt units compared to infected females. Also, the expression of MUC2 mRNA is found to be more expressed in infected females than males. In addition, testosterone, nitric oxide, and inducible nitric oxide synthase activities were found to be higher in infected male mice than in infected females. In general, male Swiss albino mice have been shown to be relatively more susceptible to infection with E. papilaata when compared with female mice.
