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

Background: House dust mites (HDMs) are the main source of indoor inhalatory allergens that cause IgE-mediated allergic diseases. The discovery and identification of HDM allergens are important for the diagnosis and treatment of allergic diseases. Objective: We sought to identify a Group 39 Methods: Homology analysis of amino acid (aa) sequences in HDM and human troponin C (TnC)-like protein was performed. Total RNA of Der p was extracted and used to amplify Der p 39 cDNA with specific primers. Recombinant Der p 39 protein was expressed with a pET-His prokaryotic expression system and purified with Ni-NTA resins. IgE binding was evaluated with western blot, dot blot, and enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) experiments. The IgE binding epitopes of Der p 39 were identified by observing HDM-allergic sera interactions with truncated and hybrid proteins formed from Der p 39 and human TnC-like proteins. Results: The Der p 39 open reading frame (ORF) cDNA was found to be 462 base pairs and registered in the NCBI library (GenBank no. MZ336019.1). Der p 39, which encoded 153 aa, was found to have 35.63% and 99.35% homology with human TnC and Conclusion: Der p 39 was identified as a minor HDM allergen with a conformational IgE binding epitope. These findings could have important theoretical implications in the development of HDM allergy diagnostics and therapeutics.
