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

Sphingomyelin- and cholesterol-enriched microdomains can be isolated as detergent-resistant membranes from total cell extracts (total-DRM). It is generally believed that this total-DRM represents microdomains of the plasma membrane. Here we describe the purification and detailed characterization of microdomains from Golgi membranes. These Golgi-derived detergent-insoluble complexes (GICs) have a low buoyant density and are highly enriched in lipids, containing 25% of total Golgi phospholipids including 67% of Golgi-derived sphingomyelin, and 43% of Golgi-derived cholesterol. In contrast to total-DRM, GICs contain only 10 major proteins, present in nearly stoichiometric amounts, including the alpha- and beta-subunits of heterotrimeric G proteins, flotillin-1, caveolin, and subunits of the vacuolar ATPase. Morphological data show a brefeldin A-sensitive and temperature-sensitive localization to the Golgi complex. Strikingly, the stability of GICs does not depend on its membrane environment, because, after addition of brefeldin A to cells, GICs can be isolated from a fused Golgi-endoplasmic reticulum organelle. This indicates that GIC microdomains are not in a dynamic equilibrium with neighboring membrane proteins and lipids. After disruption of the microdomains by cholesterol extraction with cyclodextrin, a subcomplex of several GIC proteins including the B-subunit of the vacuolar ATPase, flotillin-1, caveolin, and p17 could still be isolated by immunoprecipitation. This indicates that several of the identified GIC proteins localize to the same microdomains and that the microdomain scaffold is not required for protein interactions between these GIC proteins but instead might modulate their affinity.
