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

Herein we report an improved method to separate cardiolipin (Ptd(2)Gro) from tissue total lipid extracts using a biphasic solvent system combined with high performance liquid chromatography. This method uses a normal phase silica column and two mobile phases: mobile phase A that was n-hexane:2-propanol (3:2 by vol) and mobile phase B that was n-hexane:2-propanol:water (56.7:37.8:5.5 by vol). The initial solvent conditions were 95% A and 5% B, with a flow rate of 1.5 mL/min. The samples were from non-derivatized aliquots of liver, heart, or brain lipid extracts. The peak corresponding to Ptd(2)Gro appeared at 31 min, was well defined and did not overlap with neighboring peaks. The adjacent peak corresponded to ethanolamine glycerophospholipids and the remaining phospholipids were eluted in a single peak. The identity of the phospholipids separated by this method was verified by thin layer chromatography (TLC) and fatty acid analysis, which confirmed that the Ptd(2)Gro was well resolved from other phospholipids. This method is useful to separate and quantify Ptd(2)Gro from small tissue samples thereby avoiding the variability associated with TLC methods.
