Contribution of the Toxoplasma ICT IgG IgM
Article in Journal of clinical laboratory analysis, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 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
backgroundAn immunochromatography technology (ICT) rapid diagnostic test, the Toxoplasma ICT IgG-IgM
methodsThirty-nine sera were selected for the study from among 2,615 which were already tested by IgG and IgM ELISA. They displayed equivocal IgG titres (4.4-9 IU/ml) in absence of IgM (19 sera) or IgM anti-Toxoplasma antibodies in absence of IgG (titre <4.4 IU/ml) (20 sera). All these sera were additionally tested by WB Toxo II IgG
resultsImmunochromatography technology Sensitivity in the detection either of low IgG titres in absence of IgM or of specific anti-Toxoplasma IgM was 100%. Only one serum with equivocal IgG titre by ELISA and negative with Toxo II IgG
conclusionResults confirm the high sensitivity of Toxoplasma ICT IgG-IgM
