Mannan-binding lectin levels related to spontaneous abortion in Brazilian patients with celiac disease.
Article in Digestive diseases and sciences, 2008. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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.
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
Low concentration of mannan-binding lectin (MBL) has been related to unexplained spontaneous abortion (SA), which has also been observed in an increased frequency in patients with celiac disease (CD). In this study, plasma levels of MBL were determined in patients with CD and irritable bowel syndrome (IBS) in order to investigate whether there is an association of MBL levels and the occurrence of SA in these patients. MBL concentration was determined in 46 patients with CD (28 without and 18 with report of SA) and 38 patients with IBS (25 without and 13 with report of SA). A higher frequency of SA was observed in women with CD when compared to IBS patients (23.2 vs. 13.9%; P = 0.046). No significant difference was observed in MBL concentrations between patients with CD, IBS, and healthy controls, nor between patients with or without occurrence of SA. These results suggest that the serum levels of MBL and the occurrence of SA in women with CD and IBS are not causally related.
