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

Conjugated linoleic acid (CLA) has been shown to inhibit tumorigenesis in animal models and is cytostatic to numerous cell lines in vitro. However, the mechanism of action is unknown. In the current study, we determined the effects of CLA and specific isomers of CLA on the rate of oxygenation of arachidonic acid by prostaglandin H synthase (PGHS) in ram seminal vesicle microsomes. The enzyme was incubated with 0.1 to 100 microM CLA or specific isomers of CLA for 2 min prior to the addition of 44 to 176 microM arachidonate. The isomers tested were 9(E),11(E) CLA; 9(Z),11(E) CLA; 9(Z),11(Z) CLA, and 10(E),12(2) CLA. For a positive inhibitor control, flurbiprofen was used at 0.75 to 2.50 microM. Enzyme activity was assessed by measuring the rate of oxygen consumption. Inclusion of CLA or specific isomers of CLA in the incubation mixtures inhibits PGHS. The efficacy differs for each isomer, with the 9(Z),11 (E) CLA isomer being the most effective and the 9(Z),11 (Z) CLA isomer being the least effective inhibitor among the four CLA isomers tested. The Ki values obtained by Dixon replots range from 18.7 microM for the most effective isomer, 9(Z),11 (E) CLA, to 105.3 microM for the least effective isomer, 9(2),11(2) CLA. The Ki value for flurbiprofen with ram seminal vesicle microsomes was 0.33 microM. As the concentration of arachidonate was increased, the CLA-dependent inhibition of PGHS decreased, suggesting competitive inhibition. The results of this study demonstrate the potential of CLA and specific isomers of CLA to modulate prostaglandin biosynthesis.
