Construction and characterization of a live attenuated vaccine candidate against Shigella dysenteriae type 1.
Article in Infection and immunity, 1997. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 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
Vaccine candidates against Shigella dysenteriae type 1, which is associated with the most severe cases of bacillary dysentery, were constructed. The rfp and rfb gene clusters, which code for S. dysenteriae 1 O antigen biosynthesis, were randomly integrated into either the chromosome or the virulence plasmid of the rough attenuated Shigella flexneri aroD strain SFL124-27 with a minitransposon carrying an arsenite resistance selection marker. The recombinant clones efficiently expressed the recombinant O antigen, exhibited a normal growth pattern, were able to invade and survive within eukaryotic cells to the same extent as the parental strain, and expressed the recombinant antigen within invaded cells. A clone was selected as the vaccine candidate, which was demonstrated to be immunogenic and safe in animal models, leading to 47% full protection and 53% partial protection against challenge with the wild-type strain.
