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

Introduction: Methods: Eukaryotic plasmids encoding pVAX-ROP6 and pVAX-MIC12 were constructed, and mice were immunized with either single or combined formulations. Results and discussion: Vaccination elicited a robust Th1-biased immune response, characterized by elevated IgG2a/IgG1 ratios, enhanced cytotoxic T lymphocyte activity, increased CD4+ and CD8+ T cell populations, and elevated production of IFN-γ, IL-12, and IL-2. The dual vaccine demonstrated superior efficacy, significantly prolonging survival following lethal RH challenge (compared to uniform mortality in controls by day 6) and reducing PRU brain cyst burden by 56.6%, outperforming single-gene formulations. Although these results establish pVAX-ROP6/MIC12 as promising vaccine candidates, protection remained partial, highlighting the need for further optimization. Overall, this study underscores the potential of bivalent DNA vaccines to induce broad protective immunity against toxoplasmosis, supporting their continued development for clinical and veterinary use.
