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

BACKGROUND AND

objectiveThe objective of this study was to investigate the antibody to RBC in autoimmune disease patients with ANA using sensitive Coombs test based on flow cytometry method. MATERIALS AND

methodsAntinuclear antibodies (ANA) of autoimmune disease patients were added to red blood cells (RBCs) of blood group O. At the same time, healthy individuals' serums were also checked. The sample tubes were incubated for 30 min at 37°C. After incubation, each sample was analyzed on flow cytometry.

resultsThe agglutination of antinuclear antibodies in autoimmune patients was observed, while in healthy people, there was no agglutination between RBCs and serum. A significant difference was found between the disease group and healthy group (p < 0.0001) showing that a statistical analysis was conducted to compare the presence of ANA agglutination between the two groups. The reported p-value of less than 0.0001 shows that the observed difference is highly significant. The serum stability test conducted over ten consecutive days demonstrated a CV of 6.90% in the test results, indicating favorable stability.

conclusionIn conclusion, this study emphasizes the effectiveness of flow cytometry as a valuable tool for detecting RBC-bound antibodies and new antibodies in autoimmune disease patients. Its high sensitivity and accuracy have the potential to greatly improve diagnostic capabilities in clinical laboratories.
