Murine Taenia crassiceps cysticercosis: H-2 complex and sex influence on susceptibility.
Article in Parasitology research, 1991. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 17 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
Several inbred strains of mice were infected by intraperitoneal injection of ten Taenia crassiceps cysticerci per mouse. Genes linked with the major histocompatibility complex (H-2) were found to influence parasite growth greatly, as demonstrated by the different parasite loads of H-2 congenic mice with BALB background: BALB/c (H-2d) mice were the most susceptible, whereas BALB/k (H-2k) and BALB/b (H-2b) animals were comparatively resistant. Non-H-2 genes had no significant effect on susceptibility in H-2d strains, as reflected by the similar parasite loads in BALB/c, DBA/2, and (BALB/c x DBA/2)F1 mice. Using the H-2b (BALB/b, C57BL/6J) and H-2k (C3H/HeJ, BALB/k, and C3HeB/FeJ) strains, we found that non-H-2 background genes caused a small but significant influence on parasite load. A recombinant mouse strain alleles (Kk, Ik, Sd, Dd) was also susceptible, indicating that S and/or D regions of the H-2d complex are probably involved in the control of resistance to murine cysticercosis. Females of all mouse strains were more susceptible than males. The same effects were observed for H-2 genes and sex, with two strains of T. crassiceps differing in their rate of growth.
