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

The goal of this study was to determine the effect of apolipoproteins on Amphotericin B lipid complex (ABLC). We report that incubation of ABLC with recombinant human apolipoprotein A-I (apoA-I) induces solubilization of ABLC by transforming the micron sized phospholipid/AMB assemblies into discrete nanoscale disk-shaped complexes termed nanodisks (ND). ApoA-I induced changes in ABLC solubility and morphology were monitored by spectroscopy and electron microscopy. AMB efficacy was evaluated in yeast and pathogenic fungi growth inhibition assays and the effect of AMB formulation on cell toxicity was assessed in cultured Hep3B cells. AMB associated with ND were more efficiently nebulized than AMB associated with ABLC. Thus, transformation of ABLC into ND preserves the potent biological activity of AMB as well as the reduced toxicity of the ABLC formulation. ABLC derived AMB-ND offer advantages over conventional ABLC in terms of stability, storage, nebulization efficiency and provides an intrinsic "handle" for tissue specific targeting via genetic engineering of its protein component.
