Screening of sperm antigen epitopes by phage display technique and its preliminary clinical application.

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
backgroundAt present, there is a lack of standardized preparation methods of sperm antigen for the detection of antisperm antibody (AsAb). To screen sperm antigen mimotopes from a phage display random peptide library and use them to establish an enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) for the detection of AsAb, immunoglobulins were extracted from the sera of rabbits with positive AsAb and negative AsAb, respectively, by the saturated ammonium sulfate method, and a phage display 12-mer peptide library was affinity panned by the extracted immunoglobins coated on the ELISA plate. Then, the obtained positive phage clones were identified by ELISA and sent for sequencing and peptides synthesis. Last, a diagnostic ELISA was established to detect clinical serum and seminal plasma samples.
resultsA total of sixty phage clones were chosen by affinity panning, and sixteen of them reacted positively with AsAb in indirect ELISA and sandwich ELISA. Following DNA sequencing and translation, the peptide sequences of the sixteen positive clones were obtained. By comparison in Blast database, four of sixteen positive clones were found to be closely related to male reproduction. Two (#1 and #25) of four mimotopes were synthesized, and an ELISA method was established using the two mimotopes as sperm specific antigens. One hundred and thirty-four serum samples and seventy-four seminal plasma samples from infertile couples were analyzed by the established ELISA with #1 and #25 mimotopes, respectively. The positive rates of AsAb in serum samples were 20.15% (27/134) for #1 and 11.19% (15/134) for #25, respectively, and the coincidence rate between them was 91.04% (122/134). The positive rates of AsAb in seminal plasma samples were 1.35% (1/74) for both #1 and #25, and the coincidence rate was 100%.
conclusionSperm antigen mimotopes can be obtained successfully by the phage display technique, and can be used as standard sperm specific antigens to establish an ELISA method for the detection of AsAb.
