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

The heavy incidence and severe or lethal damages of toxoplasmosis clearly indicate the need for the development of a more effective vaccine. In the present study, we constructed a multiantigenic DNA vaccine, eukaryotic plasmid pcDNA3.1-SAG1-ROP2, expressing surface protein SAG1 and rhoptry protein ROP2 of Toxoplasma gondii, and examined the expression ability of the DNA vaccine in HeLa cells by Western blot. Afterwards, we investigated the efficacy of pcDNA3.1-SAG1-ROP2 with or without co-administration of a plasmid encoding murine interleukin-12 (pIL-12) as a genetic adjuvant to protect Bagg albino/c mice against toxoplasmosis. After T. gondii RH strain challenge, mice immunized with pcDNA3.1-SAG1-ROP2 displayed significant high survival rates. Moreover, the protection was markedly enhanced by pIL-12 co-administration. The results of lymphocyte proliferation assay, cytokine, and antibody determinations show that mice immunized with pcDNA3.1-SAG1-ROP2 elicited stronger humoral and Th1-type cellular immune responses than those immunized with single-gene plasmids, empty plasmid, or phosphate-buffered saline. Furthermore, co-immunization with IL-12 genes resulted in a dramatic enhancement of these responses. Our study indicates that the introduction of multiantigenic DNA vaccine is more powerful and efficient than single-gene vaccine, and the co-delivery of pIL-12 further enhanced the potency of multiantigenic DNA vaccine.
