Requirement of a Wnt5A-microbiota axis in the maintenance of gut B-cell repertoire and protection from infection.

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
We investigated the influence of a Wnt5A-gut microbiota axis on gut B-cell repertoire and protection from infection, having previously demonstrated that Wnt5A in association with gut commensals helps shape gut T-cell repertoire. Accordingly, Wnt5A heterozygous mice, which express less than wild-type level of Wnt5A, and their isolated Peyer's patches (PPs) were studied in comparison with the wild-type counterparts. The percentages of IgM- and IgA-expressing B cells were quite similar in the PP of both sets of mice. However, the PP of the Wnt5A heterozygous mice harbored significantly higher than wild-type levels of microbiota-bound B cell-secreted IgA, indicating the prevalence of a microbial population therein, which is significantly altered from that of wild-type. Additionally, the percentage of PP IgG1-expressing B cells was appreciably depressed in the Wnt5A heterozygous mice in comparison to wild-type. Wnt5A heterozygous mice, furthermore, exhibited notably higher than the wild-type levels of morbidity and mortality following infection with
