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

This paper describes studies of the carbohydrate-carbohydrate interaction (CCI) between micelles of a lactosyl lipid and monolayers of the glycosphingolipid GM(3). The lactose Lac.GM(3) interaction is involved in B16 melanoma cell adhesion and signaling processes, and a thorough understanding of the molecular details of this CCI is important for the design of new anti-adhesive and anti-metastatic agents. In this paper, we examine the influence of variations in divalent cations and subphase ionic strength on the Lac.GM(3) interaction. Our results indicate that, in the absence of divalent cations, the Lac.GM(3) CCI is strengthened at higher sodium chloride concentrations in the subphase. In contrast, when divalent cations are present in solution, the CCI is not as sensitive to ionic strength. These results suggest a role for both cation dependent as well as independent interactions in the Lac.GM(3) CCI.
