Biological variation and reference change values of serum Mac-2-binding protein glycosylation isomer (M2BPGi).
Article in Journal of clinical laboratory analysis, 2022. 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
backgroundLimited data are available with regard to biological variations of the Mac-2-binding protein glycosylation isomer (M2BPGi), a liver fibrosis biomarker.
methodsLong-term biological variation of M2BPGi was investigated using longitudinally measured M2BPGi test results from healthy Korean adult subjects. One-way analysis of variance (ANOVA) tests were used to calculate the reference change value (RCV) of M2BPGi based on biological variation estimates. Furthermore, asymmetric RCV was calculated according to a recent publication of the European Federation of Clinical Chemistry and Laboratory Medicine Working Group on Biological Variation and Task Group for the Biological Variation Database (EFLM TG-BVD).
resultsA total of 363 test results from 174 Korean subjects undergoing general health checkups were requested from 13 local clinics and hospitals during a 38-month period. The within-subjects biological variation (CV
conclusionsRCV based on biological estimates may be helpful for evaluating and interpreting serial M2BPGi measurements by physicians and in clinical laboratories.
