Avidity of anti-phospholipid antibodies in relation to their levels.
Article in Central-European journal of immunology, 2020. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
introductionThe heterogeneity of anti-phospholipid antibodies can be manifested not only in different antigenic specificities, but also in their avidities. The aim of the study was to investigate the relationship between anti-cardiolipin antibody (aCL) IgG avidities and levels within the range of their titres, from very low to high ones. MATERIAL AND
methodsWe analyzed 78 serum samples from 60 patients by ELISA with chaotropic agents, using urea concentration of 6 and 8 mol/l and single diluted serum samples. The changes of aCL levels and avidities were explored during a long-term follow-up in 14 patients.
resultsThe avidities of aCLs did not differ in the groups of patients classified according to aCL levels. The higher avidity antibodies predominated in our patients and the fluctuation of avidities in the longitudinal follow-up did not show significant differences. No relationship between aCL levels and their avidities was found.
conclusionsaCL avidities seem to have no relationship with aCL levels and high-avidity aCLs; the potentially deleterious effects might be present also in patients with low and extremely low aCL levels. Avidity of aCLs belongs to stable characteristics with insignificant changes in time.
