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

Pre-existing amyloid fibrils can induce further polymerization of endogenous precursor proteins in vivo. Thus, transmission of amyloid fibrils (AApoAII) may induce a conformational change in endogenous apolipoprotein A-II and accelerate amyloid deposition in mouse senile amyloidosis. To characterize transmissibility, we examined amyloidosis in the offspring of AApoAII-injected mother mice that possessed the amyloidogenic Apoa2(c) allele of the apolipoprotein A-II gene. At 4 months of age, amyloid deposits were detected in the intestines of offspring born from and nursed by amyloid fibril-injected mothers, with intensity of deposition increasing thereafter. No amyloid deposits were detected in the offspring of noninjected control mothers. Accelerated amyloidosis was also observed in offspring born from mothers without injection but nursed by amyloid fibril-injected mothers. However, this was not observed in offspring born from amyloid fibril-injected mothers but nursed by control mothers. This fostering excluded vertical transmission through the placenta, suggesting the presence of factors that accelerate amyloidosis during the nursing period. In addition, milk obtained from amyloid fibril-injected mothers induced AApoAII amyloidosis in young mice, and transmission electron microscopy detected noodle-like amyloid fibrils in milk of amyloid fibril-injected mothers. These results provide important insight into the etiology and pathogenesis of amyloid diseases.
