Heterogeneity of class I and class II MHC sequences in Schistosoma mansoni.
Article in Parasitology research, 2006. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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 investigated the genetic variations in class I and class II major histocompatibility complex (MHC) genes of Schistosoma mansoni and the effects of host MHC genotypes. S. mansoni was maintained in combinations of two mouse strains with different MHC genotypes, and the MHC gene sequences of the cercariae were investigated. The detected class I MHC gene sequences were variable, with high similarity between the H-2D(b) murine host and the parasite. For other combinations, however, the parasite sequence was homologous to those of anthropoids. All class II MHC sequences detected in S. mansoni were homologous to those of anthropoids. Our results suggest that the genetic variation in the MHC sequences of S. mansoni is derived in part from the current host, indicating horizontal transfer of the sequences from mammal to parasite.
