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

Introduction: Methods: Male C57BL/6 mice were orally infected with 300 oocysts. Fecal oocyst shedding and body weight were monitored daily. Colon tissues were collected at 3, 8, and 13 days post-infection (dpi) to assess pathological changes. Parasite burden was assessed by histological analysis (H&E staining) and qPCR targeting 5S rRNA. Goblet cells were visualized using PAS-Alcian Blue staining and Muc2 immunohistochemistry. To elucidate mechanisms of goblet cell dysfunction, we performed RNA sequencing of large intestine tissue to examine host as well as parasite transcriptomes. Results: Fecal oocyst excretion peaked at 8-9 dpi. Body weight decreased from 6 to 11 dpi, with recovery after 12 dpi. Maximal parasite accumulation in the proximal colon was observed at 8 dpi in histological examination as well as qPCR. Colon length was significantly shortened at 3 dpi. Goblet cell area significantly reduced at 8 dpi (p < 0.05). RNA sequencing of infected large intestines revealed that Discussion: Our findings suggested that
