The Binding Mechanisms of Antibodies to DNA from Healthy Subjects and Patients with Systemic Lupus Erythematosus: The Role of Monogamous Bivalency and Fc Dependence.
Article in ImmunoHorizons, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled 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.
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
Abs to DNA (anti-DNA) are a unique population of Abs that bind structural determinants on the DNA molecule. In systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE), anti-DNA Abs bind to conserved antigenic determinants, with the phosphodiester backbone being the most likely. In contrast, otherwise healthy subjects (HS) express anti-DNA that bind selectively to nonconserved sites on certain bacterial and viral DNA. As shown previously, SLE anti-DNA bind by a mechanism termed Fc-dependent monogamous bivalency. In this mechanism, both Fab sites interact with determinants on the same extended DNA molecule, reflecting the low affinity of each Fab site; the requirement for the Fc region suggests some contribution of the C region to increase avidity. In this study, we investigated whether anti-DNA from HS also bind to bacterial DNA by Fc-dependent monogamous bivalency. For this purpose, we compared the activity of intact IgG with Fab and F(ab')
