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

Caveolae are specialised vesicular microdomains of the plasma membrane. Using freeze-fracture immunogold labelling and stereoscopic imaging, the distribution of labelled caveolin 1 in caveolae of 3T3-L1 mouse fibroblast cells was shown. Immunogold-labelled caveolin structures surrounded the basolateral region of deeply invaginated caveolae like a belt whereas in the apical region distal to the plasma membrane, the caveolin labelling was nearly absent. Shallow caveolar membranes showed a dispersed caveolin labelling. After membrane cholesterol reduction by methyl-beta-cyclodextrin treatment, a dynamic re-distribution of labelled caveolin 1 and a flattening of caveolar structures was found. The highly curved caveolar membrane got totally flat, and the initial belt-like caveolin labelling disintegrated to a ring-like structure and later to a dispersed order. Intramembrane particle-free domains were still observable after cholesterol depletion and caveolin re-distribution. These results indicate that cholesterol interacting with caveolin structures at the basolateral part of caveolae is necessary for the maintenance of the deeply invaginated caveolar membranes.
