DNA immunization with Na+-K+ ATPase (Sseat-6) induces protective immunity to larval Strongyloides stercoralis in mice.
Article in Infection and immunity, 2005. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 9 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
Strongyloides stercoralis causes chronic asymptomatic infections which can be maintained in the human host for many decades. Identification and treatment of S. stercoralis-infected individuals is required because immunosuppression can lead to fatal hyperinfection. In this study, human immunoglobulin G (IgG) that had previously been shown to transfer protective immunity to mice was used to identify potential protective antigens. Three antigens or genes from S. stercoralis larvae were identified as tropomyosin (Sstmy-1), Na+-K+ ATPase (Sseat-6), and LEC-5 (Sslec-5). The genes were cloned into plasmids for DNA immunization, and mice were immunized intradermally with the three plasmids individually in combination with a plasmid containing murine granulocyte-macrophage colony-stimulating factor. Only Na+-K+ ATPase induced a significant reduction in larval survival after DNA immunization. Immunization with a combination of all three plasmids, including Na+-K+ ATPase, did not induce protective immunity. Serum from mice immunized with DNA encoding Na+-K+ ATPase was transferred to naive mice and resulted in partial protective immunity. Therefore, DNA immunization with Na+-K+ ATPase induces protective immunity in mice, and it is the first identified vaccine candidate against infection with larval S. stercoralis.
