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

A large number of eukaryotic proteins have been shown to be anchored to the cell membrane by glycosylphosphatidylinositol (GPI). This glycolipid anchor can serve as a substrate for anchor-specific phospholipases that convert the GPI-anchored membrane proteins into soluble forms. Soluble forms of many GPI anchored proteins have been identified in vivo in connective tissue, plasma, and urine. The authors have discovered that mammalian plasma contains a GPI-specific phospholipase D (GPI-PLD). Because it recognizes a portion of the conserved glycan core structure, all GPI-anchored proteins are potential substrates. The authors report the development of a murine monoclonal antibody specific for one form of the human GPI-PLD and the immunohistochemical localization of this enzyme to mast cells.
