Investigation of immunogenic properties of Hemolin from silkworm, Bombyx mori as carrier protein: an immunoinformatic approach.
Article in Scientific reports, 2018. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 15 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
Infectious diseases are the major cause of high mortality among infants and geriatric patients. Vaccines are the only weapon in our arsenal to defend us ourselves against innumerable infectious diseases. Though myriad of vaccines are available, still countless people die due to microbial infections. Subunit vaccine is an effective strategy of vaccine development, combining a highly immunogenic carrier protein with highly antigenic but non-immunogenic antigen (haptens). In this study we have made an attempt to utilize the immunoinformatic tool for carrier protein development. Immunogenic mediators (T-cell, B-cell, IFN-γ epitopes) and physiochemical properties of hemolin protein of silkworm, Bombyx mori were studied. Hemolin was found to be non-allergic and highly antigenic in nature. The refined tertiary structure of modelled hemolin was docked against TLR3 and TLR4-MD2 complex. Molecular dynamics study emphasized the stable microscopic interaction between hemolin and TLRs. In-silico cloning and codon optimization was carried out for effective expression of hemolin in E. coli expression system. The overall presence of Cytotoxic T Lymphocytes (CTL), Humoral T Lymphocytes (HTL), and IFN-γ epitopes with high antigenicity depicts the potential of hemolin as a good candidate for carrier protein.
