Immunocytochemical localization of actin in Toxoplasma gondii.
Article in Parasitology research, 1988. 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
The localization of actin in the trophozoites of Toxoplasma gondii was examined by means of immunogold staining for electron microscopy. The thin-sectioned specimens were incubated with the IgG fraction of polyclonal antibodies raised against Ascaris body-wall smooth-muscle actin following colloidal gold-conjugated protein A. Electron-dense gold particles were confined to the anterior polar region in the trophozoites: they were found in the conoid, preconoidal rings, possibly in the polar ring, and in the space between the anterior terminal of the inner membrane complex and conoid. The present experiments also suggest interactions of actin with subpellicular microtubules, leading to speculation that the association of actin with microtubules provides a link to myosin, a potential source of power for microtubule-dependent movements.
