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

aims/hypothesisGlycoxidised LDL has been implicated in the pathogenesis of atherosclerosis, a major complication of diabetes. Since atherogenesis may occur at an early stage of diabetes, we investigated whether circulating LDL isolated from subjects with IGT (n = 20) showed an increased glycoxidation status and explored the proatherogenic effects of LDL samples on macrophages. SUBJECTS AND

methodsWe investigated LDL modifications using GC-MS. Murine macrophages were incubated with LDL samples for 1 h, and then mRNA expression rates of the scavenger receptors CD36 and scavenger receptor class B type 1 (SCARB1, formerly known as SR-BI) and transcription factor peroxisome proliferator-activator receptor gamma (PPARgamma) were quantified by real-time RT-PCR.

resultsThe GC-MS experiments revealed that oxidative modifications of proline, arginine, lysine and tyrosine residues in apolipoprotein B100 were three- to fivefold higher in LDL samples from IGT subjects compared with those from NGT subjects (n = 20). Moreover, LDL glycoxidation estimated by both Nepsilon-(carboxymethyl)lysine (CML) and Nepsilon-(carboxyethyl)lysine (CEL) residues was increased more than ninefold in LDL from IGT subjects compared with samples from NGT subjects. Compared with NGT LDL, IGT LDL elicited a significantly higher CD36 (p < 0.05) and PPARG (p < 0.05) gene expression, whereas SCARB1 mRNA expression was not affected. CONCLUSIONS/

interpretationThese data suggest that IGT is associated with increased glycoxidation of circulating LDL, which might contribute to the conversion of macrophages into a proatherogenic phenotype.
