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

Despite its key role in transportation of triacylglycerides in blood, the distribution, localisation and molecular weight variants of apolipoprotein B (Apob) in teleost fish have essentially escaped study. To address this, a specific short-finned eel (Anguilla australis) Apob antiserum was produced by an immunised rabbit, purified and partially characterised. Localisation of Apob at both the mRNA (in situ hybridisation) and protein (immunohistochemistry) levels mirrored that of mammals; thus immunostaining was confined to the interstitial spaces of the liver and the vascular core of the intestinal villi. Immunostaining of proteins by Western blotting, followed by high-resolution LC-MS, indicated that peptide sequence coverage of Apob in low-density lipoproteins spanned the full-length protein. We conclude that only full-length Apob is produced by eels and that both liver and intestine are key sites for its synthesis.
