Immunogenicity of heme complexes of peptides designed to mimic the heme environment of myoglobin and hemoglobin.
Article in The protein journal, 2005. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
In the preceding paper (Protein J. 25, pages 37-49, 2005), we reported the preparation and oxygen-binding properties of peptides that form stable complexes with heme mimic. The design of the peptides was based on the natural environment of the heme group in myoglobin (Mb) and in the alpha- and beta-subunits of human adult hemoglobin (Hb). In the present work, the heme-peptides were each administered into mice, either as emulsions in adjuvant (both for injections and boosters) or intravenously as solutions in phosphate-buffered saline. Antibody (Ab) responses, monitored up to 14 weeks after the first administration, showed that when the heme-peptides were injected with adjuvant they stimulated Ab responses against the immunizing peptide, which in most cases bound to the correlate protein (Mb or Hb). However these heme-peptides were non-immunogenic when administered in PBS intravenously. It is concluded that heme-peptides:(a) would not trigger an adverse immune response if used for transfusion purposes.
