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 formation of self-assembled monolayers (SAMs) on gold surfaces containing an antigenic peptide (NANP)6 and HS(CH2)11OH, and the specific binding of a monoclonal antibody to these layers were investigated by surface plasmon resonance (SPR). Peptides were synthesized by solid-state phase synthesis and were linked either to cysteine or to an alkyl-thiol to allow covalent attachment to gold. The content of the peptide in the SAMs was systematically varied, and the binding properties of the monoclonal antibody were compared with those measured by microcalorimetry in solution. At a critical peptide concentration in the SAM an optimal antibody binding and complete surface coverage was attained. At lower peptide concentrations, the amount of adsorbed antibody decreased; at higher peptide concentrations, the binding constant decreased. These effects can be explained if the accessibility of the antigenic epitopes depends on the peptide density. Addition of free antigen induced the desorption of bound antibodies and allowed accurate measurements of the dissociation rate constant. Binding constants obtained from steady-state measurements and from measurements of the kinetic rate constants were compared.
