Contribution of 65-kDa heat shock protein induced by gamma and delta T cells to protection against Toxoplasma gondii infection.
Review in Immunologic research, 1996. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
Heat shock proteins (HSPs) are evolutionarily highly conserved polypeptides synthesized by many cells to preserve cellular functions under a variety of stressful conditions including infections. We have investigated the involvement of 65-kDa HSP (HSP65) in host protection against an intracellular protozoan parasite, Toxoplasma gondii, in mice. Experiments using low and highly virulent strains of Tox. gondii revealed that induction of murine HSP65 on macrophages closely correlates with protection against infection with this protozoan. Furthermore, we clarified that T cells, especially gamma delta T cells, are indispensable for HSP65 expression. A similar relationship between the expression of HSP65 on host macrophages and protective immunity was observed in mice infected with Leishmania major and Trypanosoma cruzi, both of which are obligate intracellular protozoa as is Tox. gondii.
