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

We report here that sera of children and adults infected with Schistosoma mansoni, S. haematobium, or S. japonicum contain antibodies against GalNAcbeta1-4(Fucalpha1-2Fucalpha1-3)GlcNAc (LDN-DF) and to a lesser extent to Galbeta1-4(Fucalpha1-3)GlcNAc (Lewis(x)) and GalNAcbeta1-4GlcNAc (LDN). Surface plasmon resonance (SPR) spectroscopy was used to monitor the presence of serum antibodies to neoglycoconjugates containing these carbohydrate epitopes and to define the immunoglobulin M (IgM) and IgG subclass distribution of the antibodies. The serum levels of antibodies to LDN-DF are high related to LDN and Lewis(x) for all examined groups of Schistosoma-infected individuals. A higher antibody response to the LDN-DF epitope was found in sera of infected children than in sera of infected adults regardless of the schistosome species. With respect to the subclasses, we found surprisingly that individuals infected with S. japonicum have predominantly IgG antibodies, while individuals infected with S. mansoni mainly show an IgM response; high levels of both isotypes were measured in sera of individuals infected with S. haematobium. These data provide new insights in the human humoral immune response to schistosome-derived glycans.
