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

Sera from patients with poststreptococcal glomerulonephritis (PSGN) known to have antibodies to proteoglycans were studied for the presence of antibodies against other basement membrane (BM) components. BM collagen (type IV) was isolated in the native state by extracting bovine anterior lens capsule (ALC) with 0.5 M acetic acid. The 7-S (collagenous) domain and the NC-1 (noncollagenous) domain of type IV collagen were obtained after bacterial collagenase digestion of ALC followed by gel filtration. Laminin was isolated from the mouse EHS tumor and fibronectin from human plasma. Immunologic studies, using an ELISA and electroimmunoblot, revealed the presence of antibodies that reacted with intact, native type IV collagen and the 7-S collagenous domain of this molecule. Reaction with the NC-1 (noncollagenous) domain was minimal, and not higher than that obtained with control sera. Laminin reaction strongly with the patients' sera, but fibronectin did not. Unlike sera from patients with Goodpasture syndrome, which contain antibodies primarily against the NC-1 (noncollagenous) domain of type IV collagen, sera from patients with acute PSGN contain antibodies against all the major macromolecular components of BM. This difference in immunologic reactivity may account for the observed differences in the pathologic picture at the glomerular level.
