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

Paragonimiasis skrjabini is a kind of zoonosis and prevalent in 16 provinces in China, such as Chongqing, Fujian, Sichuan, and Yunnan. However, sensitive and efficient diagnostic methods for the infection are limited. In order to provide a more convenient and simple method for serologic diagnosis, the recombinant P. skrjabini cysteine protease (PsCP) was expressed, purified, and then used to develop an indirect enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) for detecting anti-PsCP antibodies in human. Given the positive/negative cutoff value as 0.606, the maximum dilution of human sera in which anti-PsCP antibodies could be detected was 1:12,800. In addition, the coefficients of variation (CVs) of inter-assay and intra-assay experiments were both below 10 %. Furthermore, the sensitivity of the PsCP-based ELISA was 95.5 %, and the indirect ELISA displays no cross-reactivity with human antisera against Echinococcus granulosus, Taenia solium, Schistosoma japonicum, and Trichinella spiralis, either. In conclusion, recombinant PsCP was readily produced and used to establish a simple PsCP-based ELISA that provided a highly specific and sensitive method for analysis of clinical samples. Besides, the method can also probably be used to diagnose P. skrjabini infection in animals.
