1 · What the graph read from it

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.

2 · The registry

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

Toxoplasma gondii is a significant zoonotic pathogen of toxoplasmosis in humans and animals. Here a live attenuated Toxoplasma vaccine of WH3 Δrop18 was developed. The results showed that all mice vaccinated with WH3 Δrop18 were able to survive when challenge with various strains of Toxoplasma, including RH (type I), ME49 (type II), WH3 or WH6 (type Chinese 1). No cysts, if few, in the brain of the vaccinated animals were seen after challenge with cyst forming strains of ME49 or WH6. Vaccination with the WH3 Δrop18 triggered a strong immune response, including significantly increased level of the cytokines (IFN-γ, IL-12, TNF-α and IL-10) and the activation of CD4
