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

backgroundImmunoglobulin products (for intravenous, intramuscular and subcutaneous administration) prepared from geographically diverse plasma pools were tested for activity against common human coronaviruses (HCoVs). Products from plasma obtained from Germany, Czech Republic, Slovak Republic, USA and Spain were tested for antibodies to common HCoVs: 229E, OC43, NL63 and HKU1. As these products are manufactured from pooled plasma from thousands of donors, the antibodies therein are representative of HCoV exposure in the population at large.

methodsImmunoglobulin products were tested for antibodies to four common HCoVs by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assays (ELISAs). Neutralization assays were conducted using HCoV-229E cultured on to MRC5 cells.

resultsELISAs showed that when expressed as specific activity (anti-HCoV activity/mg immunoglobulin), similar activity against the four common HCoVs was seen across the immunoglobulin products regardless of concentration or geographic origin. Highest anti-HCoV activity was seen against HCoV-229E, followed by HCoV-OC43, HCoV-NL63 and HCoV-HKU1. The neutralization assays showed similar potency for two immunoglobulin products prepared by different processes.

conclusionsTo the authors' knowledge, this is the first demonstration of antibodies to common HCoVs in immunoglobulin products. These results may explain the cross-reactivity seen with pre-pandemic immunoglobulin products and severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus-2, and contribute to differences in severity of illness between patients.
