Structure guided mimicry of an essential P. falciparum receptor-ligand complex enhances cross neutralizing antibodies.
Article in Nature communications, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 5 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
Invasion of human erythrocytes by Plasmodium falciparum (Pf) merozoites relies on the interaction between two parasite proteins: apical membrane antigen 1 (AMA1) and rhoptry neck protein 2 (RON2). While antibodies to AMA1 provide limited protection against Pf in non-human primate malaria models, clinical trials using recombinant AMA1 alone (apoAMA1) yielded no protection due to insufficient functional antibodies. Immunization with AMA1 bound to RON2L, a 49-amino acid peptide from its ligand RON2, has shown superior protection by increasing the proportion of neutralizing antibodies. However, this approach relies on the formation of a complex in solution between the two vaccine components. To advance vaccine development, here we engineered chimeric antigens by replacing the AMA1 DII loop, displaced upon ligand binding, with RON2L. Structural analysis confirmed that the fusion chimera (Fusion-F
