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

BACKGROUND/

objectivesThe emergence of multidrug-resistant

methodsRecombinant spores were inactivated using iron-ethanol sporicidal solution and administered to BALB/c mice (8-12 weeks old) to assess safety and immunogenicity. Toxicity was evaluated through clinical monitoring, serum biochemistry, and histopathology. Immune responses were characterized by T/B cell activation, IgG/IgA titers, and mucosal sIgA levels. Protective efficacy was determined by challenging immunized mice with MDR

resultsThe inactivated spores exhibited an excellent safety profile, with no adverse effects on clinical parameters, organ function, or tissue integrity. Immunization induced robust systemic and mucosal immunity, evidenced by elevated CD4+/CD8+ T cells, B cells, and antigen-specific IgG/IgA in serum and mucosal secretions. Following the challenge, vaccinated mice showed significantly reduced pulmonary bacterial burdens (>90% reduction), and preserved lung and spleen architecture compared to controls, which developed severe inflammation and tissue damage.

conclusionsThese findings demonstrate that inactivated
