Identification of a novel T-cell epitope in soluble egg antigen of Schistosoma japonicum.

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
Identification of T-cell epitopes harbored in soluble egg antigen (SEA) of Schistosoma japonicum and study of the immunological properties are essential for understanding the immunopathology and the control of schistosomiasis. As a follow-up to our previous work, the 66- to 80-kDa fragment from SEA was partially digested with protease, fractionated by reverse-phase high-pressure liquid chromatography, and found to be carrying a peptide which stimulated proliferation and gamma interferon (IFN-gamma) production of Th1 clones specific to SEA. Sequence analysis showed that the peptide was composed of 12 amino acids lined up as DLAVELAYLGNL. A synthetic homologue induced proliferation and IFN-gamma and interleukin-2 (IL-2) production, but not IL-4 or IL-6 production, by the Th1 clones as well as by the spleen cells from SEA-immunized mice, thus indicating that the peptide carries a Th1 epitope of SEA.
