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

introductionType 1 autoimmune pancreatitis (AIP) is the pancreatic manifestation of a systemic fibroinflammatory IgG4-related disease. Accurate diagnosis of AIP can avoid major hepatobiliary and pancreatic surgery as it respond dramatically to corticosteroid therapy.

aimThis research investigated the feasibility of using peripheral blood cell immunohistochemistry, serum IgG4, T-cell receptor (TCR) and serum isoelectric focusing electrophoresis in the screening of type 1 autoimmune pancreatitis (AIP). MATERIAL AND

methodsThe peripheral blood from 3 type 1 AIP patients, 10 pancreatic cancer patients and 40 normal controls was collected. Sediment smears were jointly incubated with anti-IgG4 and anti-IgG. The percentage of IgG4/IgG positive cells was counted and serum TCR and IgG4 were detected through the whole process. After serum isoelectric focusing electrophoresis, anti-IgG4 and anti-IgG were used to confirm the components of serum.

resultsIn the serum isoelectric focusing electrophoresis, IgG4 and IgG strips showed mirrored distribution in type 1 AIP patients, while there were no strips in the normal controls and pancreatic cancer. Compared with pancreatic tumor patients and healthy controls, serum TCR was significant increased in AIP. The percentage of IgG4/IgG positive cells of peripheral blood cell immunohistochemistry was related to serum IgG4 and hormone therapy reactions.

conclusionsPeripheral blood cell immunohistochemistry, serum IgG4, TCR and serum isoelectric focusing electrophoresis is suitable for the screening of type 1 AIP and monitoring its response assessment.
