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

Trueperella pyogenes (T. pyogenes) is a zoonotic pathogen that is cause a variety of pyogenic diseases in animals. The complex pathogenicity and various virulence factors are important challenges to produce an effective vaccine. According to previous trials, inactivated whole-cell bacteria or recombinant vaccines were unsuccessful in preventing disease. Thus, this study aims to introduce a new vaccine candidate based on a live-attenuated platform. For this purpose, first T. pyogenes was subjected to sequential passage (SP) and antibiotic treatment (AT) to lose their pathogenicity. Second, Plo and fimA expressions as virulence genes were evaluated by qPCR and then mice were challenged with bacteria from SP and AT culture by intraperitoneal route. Compared to the control group (T. pyogenes-wild type), plo and fimA gene expressions were downregulated and vaccinated mice have a normal spleen appearance in contrast to the control group. In addition, there was no significant difference between bacterial count from spleen, liver, heart and peritoneal fluid in vaccinated mice and the control group. In conclusion, this study introduces a new T. pyogenes vaccine candidate based on a live-attenuated strategy that mimics natural infection without pathogenicity for further investigation on vaccines against T. pyogenes infections.
