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

backgroundSevere acute respiratory syndrome (SARS) is caused by infection with SARS-associated coronavirus (CoV). Amino acid residues 450-650 of the spike (S) glycoprotein of SARS-CoV (S450-650) contains dominant epitopes for anti-viral antibodies (Abs) in patient sera.

objectivesTo develop and evaluate an ELISA system for detection of anti-S Abs in patient sera. STUDY

designExpress recombinant S450-650 in E. Coli and evaluate the sensitivity and specificity of an ELISA system based on the S450-650 polypeptide.

resultsThe S450-650-based ELISA detected IgG Abs in 41 out of 51 serum samples from 22 hospitalized patients with probable SARS, a result closely correlated with that obtained with a virus-based ELISA (r = 0.75, k = 0.8). Differential anti-S IgG responses were observed amongst SARS patients. Some of them produced anti-S Abs early during their infection, while others failed to make IgG Abs against the S450-650 polypeptide. None of the serum samples from 100 healthy blood donors was positive in the S450-650-based assay.

conclusionThe S450-650-based ELISA can detect anti-S IgG Abs with high sensitivity and specificity.
