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

objectivesSince leishmaniasis is one of the health problems in many countries, the development of preventive vaccines against it is a top priority. Peptide vaccines may be a new way to fight the Leishmania infection. In this study, a silicon method was used to predict and analyze B and T cells to produce a vaccine against cutaneous leishmaniasis. MATERIALS AND

methodsImmunodominant epitope of

resultsResults indicated, polytope had no allergenic properties, but its antigenicity was estimated to be 0.92%. The amino acids numbers, molecular weight as well as negative and positive charge residuals were estimated 390, ~41KDa, 41, and 30, respectively. The results showed that the designed polytope has 50 post-translationally modified sites. Also, the secondary structure of the protein is composed of 25.38% alpha-helix, 12.31% extended strand, and 62.31% random coil. The results of SDS-PAGE and Western blotting revealed the recombinant protein with ~ 41 kDa. The results of Ramachandran plot showed that 96%, 2.7%, and 1.3% of amino acid residues were located in the preferred, permitted, and outlier areas, respectively.

conclusionIt is expected that the TLGL polytope will produce a cellular immune response. Therefore, the polytope could be a good candidate for an anti-leishmanial vaccine.
