The rational design of affinity-attenuated OmCI for the purification of complement C5.

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
Complement component C5 is the target of the mAb eculizumab and is the focus of a sustained drug discovery effort to prevent complement-induced inflammation in a range of autoimmune diseases. The immune evasion protein OmCI binds to and potently inactivates C5; this tight-binding interaction can be exploited to affinity-purify C5 protein from serum, offering a vastly simplified protocol compared with existing methods. However, breaking the high-affinity interaction requires conditions that risk denaturing or activating C5. We performed structure-guided
