Flow Cytometry Multiplex Bead Array Technology and Its Immunological Clinical Applications in Covid-19 Era.
Article in Balkan journal of medical genetics : BJMG, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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 thorough functional evaluation of the immune system requires a method capable of measuring multiple cytokines to assess the adaptive immune response, as well as immunoglobulin isotypes and seroconversion to evaluate the humoral immune response following infections and vaccinations. Flow Cytometry Multiplex Bead Array (FCMBA) technology has been shown to be highly effective in detecting and quantifying numerous analytes simultaneously in a single reaction well. This technique is increasingly being used in immune profiling for cytokines in various disease contexts, as well as in adoptive cell transfer, immunotherapies, and more recently, in the characterization of humoral responses to newly developed COVID-19 vaccinations. FCMBA technology has shown advantages in assessing the depth of the humoral response mounted against COVID-19 vaccinations, compared to post-COVID infection status, and screening for the suitability of sera for use in COVID-19 convalescent plasma therapy. In this article, we present an overview of the FCMBA technology concept and its versatility, highlighting its ability to map many essential analytes and its superiority over conventional Enzyme Linked Immunosorbent Assay (ELISA) techniques. Furthermore, we discuss the current and potential clinical applications of this technology in deciphering COVID-19-triggered humoral immune responses, whether after contracting the infection or post-vaccination.
