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

aimObstructive sleep apnea increases in diabetes and morbid obesity. We tested a hypothesis that circulating autoantibodies in adult type 2 diabetes which increase in association with morbid obesity are capable of causing long-lasting neuronal depolarization and altered calcium release in mouse atrial cardiomyocytes. 12

methodsProtein-A eluates from plasma of 14 diabetic obstructive sleep apnea patients and 17 age-matched diabetic patients without sleep apnea were tested for effects on depolarization and neurite out growth in N2a mouse neuroblastoma cells. The mechanism of autoantibody-mediated neurite outgrowth inhibition was investigated in co-incubation experiments of diabetic obstructive sleep apnea autoantibodies with specific antagonists of G-protein coupled receptors or the RhoA/Rho kinase signaling pathway. Following long-term storage of the protein-A eluates (to allow spontaneous proteolysis and IgG subunit dissociation), plasma autoantibodies from diabetic obstructive sleep apnea, cancer or control patients were compared for enhancement of inhibitory effects on endothelial cell survival. Size exclusion chromatography performed (in the presence or absence of a specific membrane type 1-matrix metalloproteinase inhibitor) was used to characterize the IgG autoantibody subunit(s) or fragments associated with peak neurotoxicity in diabetic obstructive sleep apnea. 13

resultsDiabetic obstructive sleep apnea (n = 14) autoantibodies caused a significant increase (P = 0.01) in membrane depolarization in N2a mouse neuroblastoma cells compared to control diabetic patients (n = 15) not suffering with obstructive sleep apnea. Process extension in N2A mouse neuroblastoma cells was significantly inhibited (P = 0.01) by diabetic obstructive sleep apnea (n = 9) autoantibodies compared to effects from identical 10 14

conclusionsThese results suggest that diabetic obstructive sleep apnea autoantibodies may induce strong depolarization in neuronal cells and alter Ca
