Effect of water-based microencapsulation on protection against EDIM rotavirus challenge in mice.
Article in Journal of virology, 1998. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 papers.
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.
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
We determined the capacity of microcapsules formed by the combination of sodium alginate, an aqueous anionic polymer, and spermine hydrochloride, an aqueous cationic amine, to enhance protection against rotavirus challenge in mice. Adult BALB/c mice were orally inoculated with either free or microencapsulated rotavirus (simian rotavirus strain RRV) and challenged 6 or 16 weeks later with murine rotavirus strain EDIM. Virus-specific humoral immune responses were determined at the time of challenge and 4 days after challenge by intestinal fragment culture. We found that spermine-alginate microcapsules enhanced protection against challenge 16 weeks after immunization but not 6 weeks after immunization. Quantities of virus-specific immunoglobulin A produced by small intestinal lamina propria lymphocytes were correlated with the degree of protection against challenge afforded by spermine-alginate microcapsules. Possible mechanisms by which microcapsules enhance protection against rotavirus challenge are discussed.
