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 purpose: The estrogen receptor alpha-36 (ER-α36) is an alternative splice variant of classical ER-α66 and is abundantly present in both ER-α66-positive and ER-α66-negative breast tumor cells. Given its clinical relevance, developing targeted strategies against this isoform is of particular significance to breast cancer research. This study aimed to develop an ER-α36-specific recombinant biosimilar single-chain variable fragment (scFv) antibody. Experimental approach: The primary amino acid sequence of the anti-ER-α36 scFv was retrieved from patent Findings/Results: Characterization using sodium dodecyl sulfate polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis and western blotting experiments revealed a molecular weight of 29 kDa for the expressed scFv antibody. Relative quantification revealed the highest scFv protein expression level 16 h after induction with 1 mM isopropyl β-D-1-thiogalactopyranoside at 25 °C. Flow cytometry and ELISA assays demonstrated specific binding of the scFv to ER-α36 protein on MDA-MB-231 breast cancer cells, while no interaction was detected with ER-α36-negative MCF-10A normal mammary epithelial cell line. Conclusion/implications: The anti-ER-α36 scFv antibody fragment was successfully expressed using the
