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

To explore the relationship between Schistosoma japonicum egg deposition and the resultant structural damage to the spleen, mice were infected percutaneously with cercariae or eggs were surgically injected into their spleens. Terminal transferase dUTP nick-end-labeling (TUNEL) showed that cells around the S. japonicum eggs were apoptotic in vivo. Flow cytometry revealed a sharp reduction in splenic B and T cells at 8 weeks post-infection (p.i.) and a significant increase in Annexin V positive T cells. Immunochemistry showed that the remaining follicles in the spleen at 16 weeks p.i. comprised mainly B lymphocytes. Comparing T lymphocytes in the spleen and liver egg granulomas showed obvious CD3
