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

Alterations in haptoglobin (Hp) glycosylation were examined in the plasma of the first patient with carbohydrate-deficient glycoprotein syndrome (CDGS) who was described in Poland. Hp concentration in the CDGS patient plasma was low (240 mg/l) and the Hp phenotype was shown to be 2-2. Three glycoforms of the Hp beta subunit were observed in SDS-PAGE in CDGS. The densitometric analysis and molecular weight determinations suggested that 50% of glycoforms were fully glycosylated; 30% contained three out of four and 20% only two out of four glycan units compared to those that are present in Hp derived from healthy people. Results with lectins (concanavalin A and Sambucus nigra, Maackia amurensis and Alleuria aurantia agglutinins) indicate that all three glycoforms of beta subunit of CDGS-Hp contained biantennary complex glycans terminated with alpha2,6 bound sialic acid, but without fucose or alpha2,3 linked sialic acid. Hp glycosylation abnormalities described in this work suggest that this case was a type I carbohydrate-deficient glycoprotein syndrome.
