Detection of annexin A8 antibodies in serum of patients with antiphospholipid syndrome.
Article in Biochemia medica, 2018. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 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
introductionAntibodies specific for annexin A8 (AnxA8) have not been investigated in patients suffering from antiphospholipid syndrome (APS) yet. The aim of this study was to compare the presence of AnxA8 antibodies in serum of APS patients with that of age-matched healthy controls and to investigate whether AnxA8 antibodies are potential biomarkers for APS. MATERIALS AND
methodsWe enrolled 22 APS patients and 22 healthy controls in this case-control study. We used sodium dodecyl sulfate polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis and immunoblot to investigate the presence of AnxA8 antibodies, and we applied enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay to investigate the presence of cardiolipin (CL) and beta-2-glycoprotein I (ß2GPI) antibodies.
resultsThe serum of 9/22 APS patients showed AnxA8 IgG isotype antibody reactivity compared to serum of 2/22 healthy controls (P = 0.034). When we also included weak immunoblot signals, 12/22 APS patients exhibited AnxA8 IgG isotype antibody reactivity compared to 3/22 healthy controls (P = 0.005). We also investigated the presence of AnxA8 IgM isotype antibodies in the serum of APS patients but found no statistically significant difference between the APS patient group and healthy control group (P = 0.500). We further investigated the presence of ß2GPI and CL IgG and IgM isotype antibodies. AnxA8 IgG isotype antibodies were present in APS patients in a similar frequency as the APS "criteria" antibody against CL (P = 0.764).
conclusionWe demonstrated that AnxA8 IgG isotype antibodies are potential biomarkers for the diagnosis of APS.
