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 analyzed surface glycoproteins of human natural killer (NK) cells by utilizing lectins. Among the lectins tested, wheat germ agglutinin (WGA) was found to bind preferentially to CD16(Leu11)-positive lymphocytes as determined by two-colour flow cytometry. Analysis of glycoproteins in the lysate prepared from NK cells with sodium dodecyl sulfate (SDS) gel electrophoresis followed by Western blotting and 125I labeled WGA staining revealed that a glycoprotein with an M(r) of 65 kDa was strongly bound to the lectin, but no corresponding glycoprotein was detected in the lysate of T lymphocytes. This glycoprotein (GP65) gave several spots in the pI range 4.1-4.6 on 2-dimensional gel electrophoresis. Sialidase treatment of GP65 resulted in a single spot on the 2-dimensional gel, suggesting that GP65 is heterogeneous in the degree of sialylation. GP65 was shown to be exposed on the cell surface, since it was radiolabeled with 125I by the lactoperoxidase-catalyzed method. We next isolated GP65 from human peripheral blood lymphocytes by a combination of chromatography on a cation-exchange column and a WGA-agarose column and preparative SDS gel electrophoresis. It is suggested that GP65 is a novel surface glycoprotein on human NK cells.
