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

Toxoplasma gondii is a zoonotic and intracellular parasite with fast proliferating properties leading to rapid host cell lysis. T. gondii modulates its host cell on numerous functional levels. T. gondii was previously reported to influence host cellular cell cycle and to dampen host cell division. By using primary endothelial host cells, we show for the first time that T. gondii tachyzoite infections led to increased host cell proliferation and to an enhanced number of multi-nucleated host cells. As detected on DNA content level, parasite infections induced a G2/M cell cycle arrest without affecting expression of G2-specific cyclin B1. In line, parasite-driven impairment mainly concerned mitotic phase of host cells by propagating several functional alterations, such as chromosome segregation errors, mitotic spindle alteration and blockage of cytokinesis progression, with the latter most likely being mediated by the downregulation of the Aurora B kinase expression.
