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

Aims: Antibodies against phosphorylcholine (anti-PC) are implicated as protection markers in atherosclerosis, cardiovascular disease (CVD), and other chronic inflammatory conditions. Mostly, these studies have been focused on IgM. In this study, we determined IgG, IgG1, and IgG2 anti-PC among 60-year-olds. Methods: Based on a 7-year follow-up of 60-year-olds (2,039 men and 2,193 women) from Stockholm County, we performed a nested case-control study of 209 incident CVD cases with 620 age- and sex-matched controls. Anti-PC was determined using ELISA. We predicted the binding affinity of PC with our fully human, in-house-produced IgG1 anti-PC clones (i.e., A01, D05, and E01) using the molecular docking and molecular dynamics simulation approach, to retrieve information regarding binding properties to PC. Results: After adjustment for confounders, IgG and IgG2 anti-PC showed some significant associations, but IgG1 anti-PC was much stronger as a protection marker. IgG1 anti-PC was associated with an increased risk of CVD below 33rd, 25th, and 10th percentile and of stroke below 33rd and 25th, and of myocardial infarction (MI) below 10th percentile. Among men, a strong association with stroke was determined below the 33rd percentile [HR 9.20, CI (2.22-38.12); Conclusion: IgG1 anti-PC was a stronger protection marker than IgG anti-PC and IgG2 anti-PC and also separately for men. The molecular modeling approach helps in identifying the intrinsic properties of anti-PC clones and atomistic interactions with PC.
