Diagnostic Accuracy of IgA Anti-Transglutaminase Assessed by Chemiluminescence: A Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis.

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
A new chemiluminescence immunoassay method (CLIA) for detecting IgA anti-transglutaminase (atTG IgA) in celiac disease (CD) has prompted inquiries into its diagnostic performance. We conducted a systematic review and meta-analysis comparing CLIA with traditional enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) and fluorescence enzyme immunoassay (FEIA). We searched PubMed, Medline, and Embase databases up to March 2024. The diagnostic references were intestinal biopsy and ESPGHAN guidelines. We calculated the sensitivity and specificity of atTG IgA assessed by CLIA and the odds ratio (OR) between the assays. Eleven articles were eligible for the systematic review and seven for the meta-analysis. Sensitivity and specificity of atTG IgA CLIA-assay were 0.98 (95% CI, 0.95-0.99) and 0.97 (95% CI, 0.94-0.99), respectively. The sensitivity of atTG IgA antibody detection did not significantly vary across the three assay modalities examined (CLIA vs. ELISA OR: 1.08 (95% CI, 0.56-2.11;
