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

Inbred mouse strains derived from the species Mus spretus have been very informative in the study of certain gene polymorphisms in inflammation and infection. Based on our interest in sepsis, we used SPRET/EiJ mice and mapped several critical loci that are linked to sensitivity to cytokine-induced inflammation and endotoxemia. These studies were based on prominent phenotypes that have never been observed in strains derived from Mus musculus and we mapped them at a resolution that enables us to draw conclusions on the mechanisms. Now that the genome of SPRET/EiJ has been sequenced, and other tools have become available, it is time to revisit this strain and emphasize its advantages and disadvantages as a research tool and a discovery platform.
