New chemiluminescent enzyme immunoassay for quantitative measurement of Mac-2 binding protein glycosylation isomer in chronic liver disease.

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
backgroundThis study aimed to evaluate the quantitative measurement of Mac-2 binding protein glycosylation isomer (M2BPGi) levels using the new chemiluminescent enzyme immunoassay.
methodsThe data of a total of 347 patients with hepatitis C virus (HCV) infection and 150 health volunteers from 13 locations in Japan were evaluated. The quantitative system for measuring M2BPGi-Qt levels was based on a new chemiluminescent enzyme immunoassay. We evaluated the reproducibility and quantitation range in quantitative M2BPGi-Qt measurement. We also investigated the confidence ratio of M2BPGi-Qt levels measured by the new quantitative system to M2BPGi levels measured by the current semi-quantitative system for validating the clinical utility of the new method.
resultsThe reproducibility of M2BPGi-Qt in HCV samples with negative, positive 1+, and positive 2+ was 0.77 ± 0.02 AU/mL, 2.25 ± 0.03 AU/mL, and 6.55 ± 0.21 AU/mL, respectively, and the corresponding coefficient of variation (CV)s were 2.1%, 1.3%, and 3.2%, respectively. The range of quantification assessment resulted that all CVs showed less than 5% in investigated range. Sample stability testing found that the mean percentage difference between the pre- and post-storage values of 6 samples ranged between 96.2 and 103.9%. The correlation coefficient between M2BPGi and M2BPGi-Qt in patients with HCV and the healthy volunteers was 0.986 and 0.991, respectively. M2BPGi-Qt could be quantitatively assessed in a patient with over 20 C.O.I.
conclusionCompared with qualitative methods, the M2BPGi quantitative measurement system could provide a numerical value unaffected by interpretation bias, and measurements are more precise at high M2BPGi levels.
