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

Fusarium head blight (FHB) caused by Fusarium graminearum infection is a devastating disease of wheat, maize, and other cereals. A previously isolated chicken single-chain Fv antibody (scFv), CWP2, that conferred durable resistance in planta was subjected to directed evolution by error-prone PCR and DNA shuffling, generating a mutated library. Panning of the mutated library against cell wall-bound proteins (CWPs) from F. graminearum by phage display enriched phage clones that were used for a further round of DNA shuffling to construct a combinatorial library comprising 3 × 10(6) variants. Screening of this library by phage display for variants reactive against the CWPs led to the identification of a number of clones. Comparative enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay analyses revealed eight clones exhibiting a higher reactivity than the parent, CWP2, and containing four different single-chain antibody sequences. Surface plasmon resonance measurements confirmed that three mutated scFvs, CWPa, CWPb, and CWPd, displayed 15-fold, 11-fold, and 7-fold higher affinities, respectively, compared with CWP2. Three-dimension modeling of CWPa illustrates a conformational change bringing all six complementary domain regions on the antibody surface in one direction. These results provide promising unique resistance molecules for effective control of FHB and its associated mycotoxins in food/feed chains.
