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

Small bispecific antibodies (bsAbs) are important therapeutic molecules and represent the first bsAb format approved by the United States Food and Drug Administration. Diabody (Db), a small bsAb format, has four possible domain orders; we previously reported the differences in the expression levels and cancer growth inhibition effects upon rearranging the domain order of this format. However, there have been no comprehensive reports on domain rearrangements of bispecific single-chain Db (scDb) and tandem single-chain Fv (taFv), which are widely used bsAb formats. In this study, we designed all possible domain orders for scDb and taFv (each with eight variants) with identical Fv pairs and individually expressed all 16 variants using Escherichia coli, Pichia pastoris, and Brevibacillus choshinensis. Comprehensive investigations showed that the intrinsic functions of the variants were similar to each other, regardless of the expression host system, but expression levels varied depending on the format as well as on the host cell. Among the 16 variants, we found a promising candidate that exhibited high activity and productivity. Furthermore, we determined that B. choshinensis is an attractive expression host because of its secretory production of recombinant proteins.
