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

By use of a 3' extension PCR strategy, cDNA clones were isolated spanning the transmembrane region and a complete cytoplasmic domain of the human interleukin 5 receptor alpha subunit (hIL5R alpha). These cDNAs differ from previously isolated clones encoding a soluble hIL5R alpha form by a sequence switch at position 1243. When expressed in COS-1 cells, only low-affinity binding of 125I-labeled human interleukin 5 was observed. Coexpression of the hIL5R beta chain led to a 2-fold increase in binding affinity. In addition, this same cloning strategy allowed us to identify a putative second soluble isoform of hIL5R alpha. Genomic data revealed that the two soluble variants arise from either a "normal" splicing event or from the absence of splicing, whereas synthesis of the membrane-anchored form requires alternative splicing.
