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

Systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) is a multisystem autoimmune disease characterized by circulating and tissue fixed autoantibodies reactive with self-antigens, including nucleic acid and other nuclear components. The pathways by which these autoantibodies act as a pathogenic factor remain elusive. Present study has investigated the role of estrogens in SLE etiopathogenesis. Estrogen-modified DNA [4-OHE(2)-Cu(II)-DNA] showed single- and double-strand breaks, hyperchromicity, decrease in Tm, and modification of bases. The 4-OHE(2)-Cu(II)-DNA exhibited increased binding with naturally occurring anti-DNA autoantibodies as compared to the unmodified native form (P < 0.001) as assessed by ELISA, quantitative precipitin titration, and gel retardation assay. The relative affinity of anti-DNA antibodies for modified and native DNA was in the order of 2.1 x 10(-7) M and 1.3 x 10(-6) M, respectively. The data suggested that DNA modified with 4-OHE(2) and Cu(II) may be one of the factors for the induction of circulating anti-DNA autoantibodies in SLE.
