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

Apolipoprotein CIII (apoCIII), a major constituent of triglyceride-rich lipoprotein, has been proposed as a key contributor to hypertriglyceridemia on the basis of its inhibitory effects on lipoprotein lipase. Many immunochemical methods have been developed for human apoCIII quantification, including ELISA. However, a sensitive and quantitative assay for nonhuman primates is not commercially available. We developed a sensitive, quantitative, and highly specific sandwich ELISA to measure apoCIII in both nonhuman primate and human serum. Our assay generates a linear calibration curve from 0.01 μg/ml to 10 μg/ml using an apoCIII standard that was purified from cynomolgus monkey serum. It is highly reproducible (intra- and interplate CV < 5% and < 8%, respectively), sensitive enough to distinguish 10% difference of apoCIII present in serum, and has no interference from purified human apolipoprotein AI, AII, B, CI, CII, or E. The same assay can also be used to measure human apoCIII with a linear calibration curve from 0.005 μg/ml to 1 μg/ml using purified human apoCIII as the standard. This fast and highly sensitive ELISA could be a useful tool to investigate the role of apoCIII in lipoprotein transport and cardiovascular disease.
