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

Hookworm infection is the most common human helminthic infection in the rural areas of southern Thailand. There is little information on the induced cellular immune responses in hookworm-infected children. The present study aimed to investigate the cellular immune responses, regulatory T cells (Tregs), Th1-type cytokines (interleukin (IL)-2 and interferon (IFN)-γ), a Th2-type cytokine (IL-5) and IL-10, which is one of the cytokines secreted by Tregs in hookworm-infected children. Twenty-nine schoolchildren diagnosed with hookworm infections and 28 healthy controls were enrolled in the study. CD4+ and CD8+ T cells and Tregs in whole blood were analyzed using flow cytometry. Plasma IL-2, IL-5, IL-10 and IFN-γ concentrations were quantified by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA). The median CD4+ T cell frequency was significantly higher in hookworm-infected children than healthy controls. Compared to healthy controls, hookworm-infected children had a significantly increased absolute number of Tregs. No differences in circulating CD8+ T cell median frequency or absolute numbers were observed among hookworm-infected children or healthy controls. Elevated IL-2 and IL-10 concentrations were found in hookworm-infected children. Moreover, the absolute number of Tregs was significantly positively correlated with the plasma IL-10 concentration (r
