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

Schistosomiasis is a neglected disease caused by parasites of the genus Schistosoma that poses serious public health problems. The liver is one of the organs seriously affected by the disease as it lodges Schistosoma eggs. We show results by nonlinear imaging techniques, Second Harmonic Generation and Two-Photon Excitation Fluorescence, to characterize mice tissues infected with Schistosoma mansoni in an experimental model. We followed the evolution of the disease in liver tissue sections through three stages: 30, 60, and 120 days post-infection-the pre-patent, acute, and early chronic phases, respectively. The presence of the Schistosoma eggs causes an increase in the collagen content and also changes in its architecture. The results allow us to clearly evaluate the disease progress helping to improve the understanding of liver fibrosis. Second Harmonic Generation and Two-Photon Excitation Fluorescence microscopy allows to characterize mice tissues infected with Schistosoma mansoni in an experimental model.
