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

IgE was isolated from a patient with the hyper IgE, recurrent infection syndrome by immunoadsorption on sepharose bound goat anti-human IgE. Addition of this IgE to a monolayer culture of human monocytes resulted in a dose-dependent increase in PGE2 secretion. The addition of F(ab')2 fraction of goat anti-human IgE in the presence of sub-stimulating doses of IgE markedly increased PGE2 secretion; whereas addition of F(ab')2 fragment of irrelevant goat IgG had no effect. Similar activation of monocytes which could be enhanced by anti IgE was observed in the presence of the patient's serum. No such effect was seen in the presence of normal human serum. These results indicate that IgE may activate human monocytes and induce PGE secretion.
