Validation of Assaying Carcinoembryonic Antigen in Human Serum by Using Immunomagnetic Reduction.
Article in Scientific reports, 2018. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 papers.
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
Immunomagnetic reduction (IMR) is a method to assay biomolecules by utilizing antibody functionalized magnetic nanoparticles. For clinical validation, important analytic performances of assaying carcinoembryonic antigen (CEA) using IMR are characterized. Furthermore, IMR is applied to assay carcinoembryonic antigen (CEA) in human serum for clinical validation. A total of 118 healthy controls and 79 patients with colorectal cancer (CRC) are recruited in this study. For comparison, assays using chemiluminometric immunoassay (CLIA) are also done for quantizing CEA in these serum samples. The results reveal a high correlation in terms of serum CEA concentration detected via IMR and CLIA is found (r = 0.963). However, IMR shows higher clinical sensitivity and specificity than those of CLIA. Moreover, the rate of false positives for smoking subjects is clearly reduced through the use of IMR. All the results demonstrate IMR is a promising alternative assay for serum CEA to diagnose CRC.
