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 T cell hybridoma mutant, which expressed a markedly reduced level of glycosylphosphatidylinositol (GPI)-anchored proteins on the cell surface, was characterized. The surface expression level of Thy-1 was approximately 17% of the wild-type level, whereas the surface expression of Ly-6A was approximately 2.4% of the wild-type level. We show here that these cells synthesized limiting amounts of the GPI core and that the underlying defect in these cells was an inability to synthesize dolichyl phosphate mannose (Dol-P-Man) at the normal level. The defect in Ly-6A expression could be partially corrected by tunicamycin, which blocked the biosynthesis of N-linked oligosaccharide precursors and shunted Dol-P-Man to the GPI pathway. Full restoration of Thy-1 and Ly-6A expression, however, required the stable transfection of a yeast Dol-P-Man synthase gene into the mutants. These results revealed that when the GPI core is limiting, there is a differential transfer of the available GPI core to proteins that contain GPI-anchor attachment sequences. Our findings also have implications for the elucidation of the defects in paroxysmal nocturnal hemoglobinuria.
