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

backgroundSmall, basic peanut proteins are often poorly extracted in pH-neutral buffers that are optimal for the extraction of peanut storage proteins such as Ara h 1. As a result, such proteins are easily missed as potential allergens.

objectiveTo analyse the allergenic composition of the basic peanut protein (BPP) fraction.

methodsA peanut extract prepared at pH 4 was fractionated by physicochemical procedures. Chemical analysis was performed by SDS-PAGE and mass spectrometry. Because immunoblotting was found to be inefficient for most of these small basic proteins, IgE-binding activity was measured by coupling the fractions to CNBr-activated Sepharose, followed by incubation with sera from 55 Dutch peanut-allergic children and

resultsMost IgE reactivity of the BPP fraction was due to the 5-7 kDa amino-terminal fragment of Ara h 1. This finding was confirmed by the use of the fragment in recombinant form, to which 25/55 of the sera was IgE-positive.

conclusionThe amino-terminal fragment of Ara h 1, a member of a family of small anti-microbial proteins, is an allergen independent of the carboxy-terminal fragment of Ara h 1.
