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

Cultured human amniotic epithelial cells (HAEC) were found by immunofluorescence microscopy to express three complement inhibitory membrane proteins, CD59 antigen, decay-accelerating factor (DAF) and membrane attack complex (MAC) inhibitory protein (MIP), on their surfaces. The effects of incubation with Fab2 fragments of monoclonal antibodies (mAb) raised against these proteins on susceptibility of sensitized cells to lysis by homologous complement was examined. Percentage cell lysis was markedly increased in the presence of Fab2 anti-CD59 and to a lesser, but significant, extent in the presence of Fab2 anti-DAF. Fab2 anti-MIP did not alter the sensitivity of the cells to lysis by complement.
