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

Intranasal (i.n.) immunization with bacterial protein antigens coupled to cholera toxin B subunit (CTB) effectively induces mucosal, especially salivary immunoglobulin A (IgA), and nonmucosal antibody responses in mice. To examine the regional distribution of antigen-specific B and T cells after i.n. immunization, antibody-secreting cells and antigen-responsive T cells in cervical lymph nodes (CLN) were compared with those found after intraoral or subcutaneous (in the neck) administration of the same antigen and with T cells found in mesenteric lymph nodes (MLN) and spleen after intragastric immunization. The i.n. immunization induced predominantly IgA antibody-secreting cells in salivary glands and IgA and IgG antibody-secreting cells in the superficial and central CLN; these responses were quantitatively enhanced if the antigen was coupled to CTB. Intraoral immunization also induced IgA and IgG antibody-secreting cells in the superficial and central CLN, but only if intact cholera toxin was included as an adjuvant. In contrast, subcutaneous (neck) immunization induced IgG antibody-secreting cells mainly in the draining facial lymph nodes. CLN cell populations resembled those of MLN, except that CLN lymphocytes had higher proportions of T cells and lower proportions of B cells and a slightly higher CD4+/CD8+ ratio among T cells than the MLN lymphocytes did. T cells that proliferated in response to antigen in vitro were found especially in central CLN 2 days after i.n. immunization and persisted for up to 6 months, whereas after intragastric immunization, responsive T cells were not found in the MLN for up to 14 days. After culture with antigen in vitro, T cells from the superficial CLN of i.n. immunized mice secreted both gamma interferon and interleukin-4. Therefore, after i.n. immunization, superficial and central CLN represent sites of regional lymphocyte development, and the central CLN in particular appear to be sites where memory T cells persist.
