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

In mouse strains with the amyloidogenic apolipoprotein A-II (ApoA-II) gene (Apoa2c), the type C ApoA-II protein (APOAIIC) associates to form amyloid fibrils AApoAII(C) that lead to development of early onset and systemic amyloidosis with characteristic heavy amyloid deposits in the liver and spleen. We found age-associated heavy deposition of amyloid fibrils [AApoAII(A)] composed of type A ApoA-II protein (APOAIIA) in BDF1 and C57BL/6 mice reared at one of our institutes. AApoAII(A) fibrils were deposited in the intestine, lungs, tongue, and stomach but not in the liver or spleen. AApoAII(A) fibrils were isolated, and morphological, biochemical, and structural characteristics distinct from those seen in AApoAII(C) and mouse AA amyloid fibrils were found. Transmission electron and atomic force microscopy showed that the majority of isolated AApoAII(A) amyloid fibrils featured fine, protofibril-like shapes. AApoAII(A) fibrils have a much weaker affinity for thioflavine T than for AApoAII(C), whereas APOAIIA protein contains less of the beta-pleated sheet structure than does APOAIIC. The injection of AApoAII(A) fibrils induced amyloid deposition in C57BL/6 and DBA2 mice (Apoa2a) as well as in R1.P1-Apoa2c mice (Apoa2c), but AApoAII(A) induced more severe amyloidosis in Apoa2a strains than in the Apoa2c strain. It was found that AApoAII(A) fibrils isolated from mice with mildly amyloidogenic APOAIIA protein have distinct characteristics. Induction of amyloidosis by heterologous amyloid fibrils clearly showed interactions between amyloid protein monomers and fibrils having different primary structures.
