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

The aim of this study was to develop a standardized enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) for detection of human soluble Fc-epsilon-RI (sFcεRI), a serum isoform of the high affinity IgE receptor. A recombinant version of sFcεRI was produced in baculovirus and used as standard. ELISA plates were coated with anti-mouse IgG followed by incubation with the monoclonal capture antibody CRA1. This FcεRI-alpha-specific antibody binds to the stalk region of the protein and does not inhibit IgE-binding. After incubation with standards or serum samples, plates were incubated with chimeric IgE followed by detection with horseradish peroxidase conjugated anti-human IgE. Enzymatic activity was visualized with (3,3',5,5')-tetramethylbenzidine. Specificity was demonstrated by omission of capture or detection reagents. Units (U) of detection were established and the dynamic range of the assay was defined as 10-640 U/ml for a 1/5 serum dilution. Parameters of linearity (R(2)>0.999), matrix interference test (recovery of 70-110%), intra-assay variability (coefficient of variation (CV) <20%) and inter-assay variability (CV <20%) met acceptance criteria for immunoassay validation. Correlation analysis of serum units of sFcεRI measured with the new ELISA and serum IgE levels confirmed earlier published data describing a weak correlation of the two parameters in patients with elevated serum IgE while no correlation in patients with normal serum IgE or the total patient group was found. In summary, we established and validated a standardized ELISA for the detection of sFcεRI. This novel method now allows for comparative analysis of sFcεRI levels in health and disease.
