Identification of the minimum region of Bordetella pertussis Vag8 required for interaction with C1 inhibitor.
Article in Microbiology and immunology, 2020. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. An erratum has been issued. Cited by 2 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
An autotransporter of Bordetella pertussis, virulence-associated gene 8 (Vag8), binds and inactivates the complement regulator, C1 inhibitor (C1-Inh), and plays a role in evasion of the complement system. However, the molecular interaction between Vag8 and C1-Inh remains unclear. Here, we localized the minimum region of Vag8 required for interaction with C1-Inh by examining the differently truncated Vag8 derivatives for the ability to bind and inactivate C1-Inh. The truncated Vag8 containing amino-acid residues 102-548, but not 102-479 and 202-648, showed the full activity of intact Vag8, suggesting that the separate 102-202 and 548-648 amino-acid regions of Vag8 mediate the interaction with C1-Inh.
