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

Mice (BALB/cJ, C3H/HeN, and C3H/HeJ) primed with actinomycin D became highly susceptible to lethal intoxication with staphylococcal enterotoxin B (SEB). The mice underwent toxicosis and toxic shock and died. Actinomycin D-primed C3H/HeN and C3H/HeJ mice showed equal sensitivity to SEB, suggesting that bacterial lipopolysaccharide derived from gram-negative bacteria in the gut may not be an important cofactor in intoxication. In a time course study of the illness, prominent pathological changes characterized by blood congestion and thickening of alveolar septa were seen in the lung, while blood congestion, inflammation, epithelial cell flattening, and villous blunting were seen in the small intestine. In lymphoid tissues, such as the spleen, congestion, inflammation, and lymphoid cell depletion were the major reactions. The pathological features of the mice had many similarities to those of rhesus monkeys intoxicated with intravenous SEB. The actinomycin D-primed C3H/HeJ mice are thus an ideal mouse model for studying SEB toxicosis and toxic shock.
