A Gyrolab Assay for the Quantitation of Free Complement Protein C5a in Human Plasma.
Article in The AAPS journal, 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
Complement protein C5a is recognized as an important component of the alternative complement pathway. Its role is prominent enough to garner interest not only as a biomarker, but also as a potential therapeutic target. Bioanalytical challenges have been posed in proper quantitation of free C5a due to interference from its precursor, C5. Additionally, free therapeutic target quantitation can be difficult due to effects of sample dilution and prolonged sample incubation when therapeutic is used as capture reagent. Gyrolab technology enables quantitation of free target analyte with minimal sample dilution and rapid sample incubations, thus enabling in vitro results that are more representative of in vivo pharmacodynamics. When coupled with strategic sample pretreatment, Gyrolab offers an opportunity to quantitate free C5a in human plasma with an assay that vastly diminishes C5 interference. A Gyrolab assay for the quantitation of free C5a in human plasma was developed and validated. Validation results confirmed that proper sample pretreatment and use of the Gyrolab platform yield accurate and reliable results. Due to the advantages that it provides, Gyrolab has become our default technology of choice for quantitation of free target.
