A model structure for the heterodimer apoA-IMilano-apoA-II supports its peculiar susceptibility to proteolysis.

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.
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
In this study, we propose a structure for the heterodimer between apolipoprotein A-I(Milano) and apolipoprotein A-II (apoA-I(M)-apoA-II) in a synthetic high-density lipoprotein (HDL) containing L-alpha-palmitoyloleoyl phosphatidylcholine. We applied bioinformatics/computational tools and procedures, such as molecular docking, molecular and essential dynamics, starting from published crystal structures for apolipoprotein A-I and apolipoprotein A-II. Structural and energetic analyses onto the simulated system showed that the molecular dynamics produced a stabilized synthetic HDL. The essential dynamic analysis showed a deviation from the starting belt structure. Our structural results were validated by limited proteolysis experiments on HDL from apoA-I(M) carriers in comparison with control HDL. The high sensitivity of apoA-I(M)-apoA-II to proteases was in agreement with the high root mean-square fluctuation values and the reduction in secondary structure content from molecular dynamics data. Circular dichroism on synthetic HDL containing apoA-I(M)-apoA-II was consistent with the alpha-helix content computed on the proposed model.
