Gut immunoglobulin alpha anti-glycan binding profiles as a research tool for local disease detection.
Article in Glycoconjugate journal, 2018. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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.
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
A promising approach capitalizing on the specific and highly sensitive characteristics of the body's own immune system is demonstrated in the context of revealing pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma cancer (PDAC). IgA from a local biofluid called gastrointestinal lavage fluid (GLF) is used to investigate glycan reactivity to show the potential of this approach. IgA antibody responses, just as with IgG, result in amplification of a small signal which aids in detecting changes from a healthy state. IgA from GLF was screened against glycan arrays containing 609 glycan structures to investigate differential binding patterns associated with the disease. Samples included PDAC (n = 14) and non-PDAC (n = 6). Non-PDAC conditions included samples from healthy patients and the potentially confounding conditions of colon cancer and its precancerous lesion, colon adenoma. Results demonstrated characteristic reactivity in the PDAC sample group to a glycan structure. Also, IgA non-reactive motifs arose showing remarkable consistency within and between sample groups. While sample sizes are too small to identify putative biomarkers, these data show the use of IgA from GLF to be a promising avenue of research for local disease biomarker discovery.
