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

purposeWe have examined the impact of sample processing time delay, temperature, and the addition of protease inhibitors (PIs) on the urinary proteome and peptidome, an important aspect of biomarker studies. EXPERIMENTAL

designTen urine samples from patients with varying pathologies were each divided and PIs added to one-half, with aliquots of each then processed and frozen immediately, or after a delay of 6 h at 4°C or room temperature (20-22°C), effectively yielding 60 samples in total. Samples were then analyzed by 2D-PAGE, SELDI-TOF-MS, and immunoassay.

resultsInterindividual variability in profiles was the dominant feature in all analyses. Minimal changes were observed by 2D-PAGE as a result of delay in processing, temperature, or PIs and no changes were seen in IgG, albumin, β2 -microglobulin, or α1 -microglobulin measured by immunoassay. Analysis of peptides showed clustering of some samples by presence/absence of PIs but the extent was very patient-dependent with most samples showing minimal effects. CONCLUSIONS AND CLINICAL RELEVANCE: The extent of processing-induced changes and the benefit of PI addition are patient- and sample-dependent. A consistent processing methodology is essential within a study to avoid any confounding of the results.
