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

A complete cDNA encoding a 21.1-kDa tegumental protein (CsTP21.1) was recognized from Clonorchis sinensis adult full-length cDNA plasmid library by bioinformatics analysis. Recombinant CsTP21.1 was highly expressed in Escherichia coli, purified by affinity chromatography, and identified by Western blotting. Immunohistochemistry demonstrated that CsTP21.1 is localized in the tegument of the adult worm. The rCsTP21.1-specific IgG1, IgG2, and IgG4 subclasses could be detected in the sera of clonorchiasis patients by ELISA, but their sensitivity was much lower than that of total IgG. The sensitivity and specificity of IgG in 66 serum samples of clonorchiasis patients were 100% and 95.5%, and the sensitivity was independent of worm loads; the cross-reaction rates in 86, 24, and 31 serum samples from patients infected with Fasciola hepatica, Schistosoma japonicum, and nematode were 98.8%, 83.3%, 93.3%, respectively, whereas no cross-reactions with Toxoplasma gondii and sparganum. This study demonstrated that CsTP21.1 is a trematode-nematode pan-specific antigen that is valuable in the development of a universal immunodiagnostic kit for human trematode and nematode infections.
