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

Young pigs were immunized with the lung-pathogenic bacterium Actinobacillus (Haemophilus) pleuropneumoniae by aerosol or orally using viable and inactivated bacteria. The cellular changes in the bronchoalveolar lavage (BAL) were studied in repeated lavages after the pigs were infected with live bacteria. The nucleated cells in the BAL were differentiated and lymphocyte subsets determined. There were no major differences between the two routes of immunization or between viable and inactivated bacteria. The immunization induced an increase in all lymphocyte subsets studied and in the appearance of plasma cells and lymphoid blasts. The infection did not cause a further increase except in granulocytes. The lack of a booster-type increase in lymphocytes in the BAL might indicate a different immunologic reaction of the lung or that lymphocytes of the BAL do not represent lung lymphocytes in general. The protective effect of the immunization might be deduced from the increase in lymphocytes after immunization but not from the reaction pattern after infection.
