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

backgroundHyperinsulinemia is an important and treatable risk factor for laminitis in horses.

objectivesEvaluate the Tosoh AIA-360 automated fluorescence enzyme immunoassay for the measurement of serum insulin concentrations in horses, and compare it to five other immunoassays for insulin quantification. ANIMALS: One hundred serum samples from 83 horses were submitted for insulin measurement.

methodsThe Tosoh AIA-360 was assessed against a reference assay (radioactive immunoassay; RIA). Using the same samples, TOS-FEIA, ELISA, and three chemiluminescent immunoassays (CLIA) were assessed for correlation and agreement with RIA.

resultsThe TOS-FEIA showed excellent correlation with RIA (r CONCLUSIONS AND CLINICAL IMPORTANCE: The TOS-FEIA had acceptable accuracy and precision for clinical use, including at concentrations of insulin < 100 μIU/mL. The ELISA and one CLIA (Cobas e) showed acceptable accuracy, but the Cobas e demonstrated marked bias compared with RIA. Both Immulite CLIA assays exhibited unacceptable accuracy.
