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

backgroundThe loss of response to adalimumab (ADL) has been related to low serum concentrations at trough. Currently, most methods commercially available for the quantification of ADL are enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) based, with a turnaround time of approximately 8 h, delaying the target dosage adjustment to the subsequent infusion. In this study, we aimed to evaluate the performance of the newly available rapid-test ADL quantification assay by comparing it with three established ELISA methods, using spiked samples and a set of clinical samples.

methodsSpiked samples from control donors and 120 serum samples from inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) patients undergoing ADL therapy were quantified using lateral flow Quantum Blue

resultsThe rapid-test assay had intraclass correlation coefficients of 0.590, 0.864 and 0.761 when comparing with the Immundiagnostik, R-Biopharm and in-house assays, respectively. For the five therapeutic windows, the accuracy was high: ADL rapid test compared with the Immundiagnostik (58-88%); R-Biopharm, 68-89%; and in house, 60-88%; and kappa statistics revealed 0.492-0.602, 0.531-0.659 and 0.545-0.682, respectively.
