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

Apolipoprotein B (apoB) is the major protein component of large lipoprotein particles that transport lipids and cholesterol. We have developed a detailed model of the first 1000 residues of apoB using standard sequence alignment programs (ClustalW and MACAW) and the MODELLER6 package for three-dimensional homology modeling. The validity of the apoB model was supported by conservation of disulfide bonds, location of all proline residues in turns and loops, and conservation of the hydrophobic faces of the two C-terminal amphipathic beta-sheets, betaA (residues 600-763) and betaB (residues 780-1000). This model suggests a lipid-pocket mechanism for initiation of lipoprotein particle assembly. In a previous model we suggested that microsomal triglyceride transfer protein might play a structural role in completion of the lipid pocket. We no longer think this likely, but instead propose a hairpin-bridge mechanism for lipid pocket completion. Salt-bridges between four tandem charged residues (717-720) in the turn of the hairpin-bridge and four tandem complementary residues (997-1000) at the C-terminus of the model lock the bridge in the closed position, enabling the deposition of an asymmetric bilayer within the lipid pocket.
