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

Anti-nucleosome antibodies, which recognise conformational epitopes consisting of histone and DNA in chromatin, have been described in autoimmune diseases. In this study, an attempt was made to isolate anti-nucleosome antibodies from the anti-DNA-depleted plasma IgG of two lupus patients either with or without nephritis by nucleohistone affinity chromatography. The purified nucleohistone-binding antibodies bound to nucleohistone in a specific manner and contained enriched anti-histone antibodies. However, adsorption of the purified antibodies with histone revealed that the nephritis patient-derived antibodies contained nucleohistone-specific antibodies. Although such purified antibodies may not recognise native structures of nucleosomes, this chromatography may provide a method to isolate and determine the fine specificity of anti-nucleosome antibodies in various autoimmune diseases.
