Development of tandem antigen capture ELISAs measuring QSOX1 isoforms in plasma and serum.

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
QSOX1 is a sulfhydryl oxidase that has been identified as a potential biomarker in multiple cancer types as well as acute decompensated heart failure. Three anti-QSOX1 monoclonal antibodies (mAbs) were generated: 2F1, 3A10, and 56-3. MAbs 2F1 and 3A10 were generated against the short isoform of recombinant QSOX1 (rQSOX1-S), and mAb 56-3 was generated against a peptide (NEQEQPLGQWHLS) from the long isoform of QSOX1 (QSOX1-L). Using these mAbs, tandem antigen capture ELISAs were developed to quantify both short and long isoforms of QSOX1 (Total QSOX1 ELISA) and QSOX1-L (QSOX1-L ELISA) in serum and plasma samples. The Total QSOX1 ELISA pairs mAbs 2F1 and 3A10 and has a limit of detection of 109.5 pM, while the QSOX1-L ELISA pairs mAbs 2F1 and 56-3 and has a limit of detection of 10 pM. The levels of total QSOX1 and QSOX1-L were measured in a cohort of paired sera and plasma from 61 donors ≥40 years old and 15 donors <40 years old. No difference in QSOX1 levels was detected between QSOX1-L and QSOX1-S in serum, but the mean concentration of QSOX1-L was found to be 3.21 nM in serum and 5.63 nM in plasma (**p = 0.006). Our tandem ELISAs demonstrate the wide range of concentrations of QSOX1-L and QSOX1-S among individual serum and plasma samples. Since the epitope of mAb 2F1 was mapped to the first CxxC motif at residues C70 and C73 and mAb 56-3 was generated against NEQEQPLGQWHLS in QSOX1-L, our findings support previous research which suggested that QSOX1-L is secreted from cells despite a putative transmembrane domain. The ELISAs reported here may be a useful tool for investigating QSOX1 isoforms as potential biomarkers in cancer and/or heart failure.
