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

Accurate measurement of thyrogloblulin (Tg) at low concentrations is essential for recurrence-monitoring in patients who have been treated for papillary and follicular thyroid cancers. The immunoassays commonly employed by clinical laboratories to measure Tg are known to suffer interferences from thyroglobulin autoantibodies (TgAb).We describe a semiautomated stable isotope standards and capture by antipeptide antibodies (SISCAPA®) LC-MS/MS method for the accurate and precise measurement of Tg using 400 uL of serum. Following trypsin digestion of serum proteins in a 96-well plate format, a Tg-specific peptide is captured and concentrated using a monoclonal antibody bound to protein G-coated paramagnetic beads. Eighteen microliters of concentrate are injected into the LC-MS/MS system. Quantitation is performed against a 6-point linear calibration curve prepared in a blank matrix. The assay calibration range is 0.1-10 ng/mL, the range of clinical interest for recurrence detection. Total imprecision in clinical production has been observed to be 13.8% and 6.54% for in-house prepared control materials having Tg concentrations of 0.24 ng/mL and 0.94 ng/mL, respectively. Limit of quantitation was determined to be 0.1 ng/mL.
