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

An experimental model to assess the utility of variants of the serum amyloid P component (SAP) gene in predicting resistance to amyloidosis resulting from chronic inflammation was developed. F2 mice were generated from amyloid resistant (A/J) and amyloid susceptible (C57BL/6J) progenitor strains. Mice were injected daily with azocasein for 30 days, a treatment protocol determined to produce little amyloid deposition in the A/J progenitor strain and substantial amyloid deposition in the C57BL/6J progenitor strain. In a blind study the F2 spleens were subjectively scored for amyloid deposition and DNA was isolated from F2 livers and subjected to Southern blot analysis to determine the inheritance of progenitor strain specific SAP restriction fragment length polymorphisms (RFLPs). No correlation between relative amyloid resistance and SAP genotype was observed, indicating that SAP RFLPs have no value in predicting predisposition to amyloid disease in the mouse model studied.
