The detergent-insoluble microdomains, rafts, can be used as an effective immunogen.
Article in Glycoconjugate journal, 2008. 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
Detergent-insoluble microdomains, or rafts, act as a platform to transduce signals from the extracellular space into the cytoplasm. In the process of developing monoclonal antibodies against raft molecules for the purpose of studying the molecular mechanism of raft-mediated signaling, we observed the uniqueness and certain advantages of immunization with rafts. Simple subcutaneous injection of mice with a phosphate-buffered saline (PBS) suspension of rafts without mixing with Freund's adjuvant made it possible to increase the titer of antiserum reacting with raft components. Interestingly, injection of rafts prepared from certain specific cell lines induced monoglycolipid-specific antibodies. Furthermore, antibodies were produced by raft-immunization of even syngeneic mice. Our findings suggest that this phenomenon does not represent a breakdown of immunological self-tolerance, but typical immune reactions accompanying the class switch from IgM antibodies to IgG antibodies.
