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

The structure of the humanized Fab from murine monoclonal antibody 5E5 specific for tumor antigen Tn-MUC1 has been determined to 1.57 Å resolution. Despite undertaking thousands of crystallization trials of the humanized 5E5 (h-5E5) Fab in the presence of either the singly or doubly glycosylated peptide antigens corresponding to Tn-MUC1, the Fab is only observed unliganded in the crystal. The conformations of the complementarity-determining regions (CDRs) of the combining site on the h-5E5 Fab do not differ significantly from those reported for liganded murine scFv at 3.0 Å resolution. While the affinity of the murine 5E5 has previously been reported as K
