Polymeric linear Peptide chimeric vaccine-induced antimalaria immunity is associated with enhanced in vitro antigen loading.
Article in Infection and immunity, 2009. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 6 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
Immunization of mice with Plasmodium berghei or Plasmodium yoelii synthetic linear peptide chimeras (LPCs) based on the circumsporozoite protein protects against experimental challenge with viable sporozoites. The immunogenicity of LPCs is significantly enhanced by spontaneous polymerization. To better understand the antigenic properties of polymeric antimalarial peptides, we studied the immune responses elicited in mice immunized with a polymer or a monomer of a linear peptide construct specific for P. yoelii and compared the responses of antigen-presenting cells following incubation with both peptide species. Efficient uptake of the polymeric peptide in vitro resulted in higher expression of the coactivation markers CD80, CD40, and CD70 on dendritic cells and higher proinflammatory cytokine production than with the monomeric peptide. Macropinocytosis seems to be the main route used by polymeric peptides internalized by antigen-presenting cells. Spontaneous polymerization of synthetic antimalarial-peptide constructs to target professional antigen-presenting cells shows promise for simple delivery of subunit malaria vaccines.
