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

objectiveAth11, an atherosclerosis susceptibility locus on proximal chromosome 10 (0 to 21 cM) revealed in a cross between apolipoprotein E deficient C57BL/6 (B6) and FVB mice, was recently confirmed in congenic mice. The objectives of this study were to assess how Ath11 affects lesion development and morphology, to determine aortic gene expression in congenics, and to narrow the congenic interval. METHODS AND

resultsAssessing lesion area over time in congenic mice showed that homozygosity for the FVB allele increased lesion area at 6 weeks persisting through to 24 weeks of age. Staining of aortic root sections at 16 weeks did not reveal obvious differences between congenics. Aortic expression-array analysis at 6 weeks revealed 97 genes that were >2-fold regulated, including 1 gene in the quantitative trait locus interval, Aldh8a1, and 2 gene clusters regulated by Hnf4alpha and Esr1. Analysis of lesion area in 11 subcongenic strains revealed 2 narrowed regions, 10a (21 genes), acting in females, and 10b (7 genes), acting in both genders.

conclusionsAth11 appears to act early in lesion formation, with significant effects on aortic gene expression. This quantitative trait locus is genetically complex, containing a female-specific region 10a from 0 to 7.3 megabases (21 genes) and a gender-independent region 10b from 20.1 to 21.9 megabases (7 genes).
