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

Blood flow-associated shear stress causes physiological and pathophysiological biochemical processes in endothelial cells that may be initiated by alterations in plasma membrane lipid domains characterized as liquid-ordered (l(o)), such as rafts or caveolae, or liquid-disordered (l(d)). To test for domain-dependent shear sensitivity, we used time-correlated single photon counting instrumentation to assess the photophysics and dynamics of the domain-selective lipid analogues DiI-C(12) and DiI-C(18) in endothelial cells subjected to physiological fluid shear stress. Under static conditions, DiI-C(12) fluorescence lifetime was less than DiI-C(18) lifetime and the diffusion coefficient of DiI-C(12) was greater than the DiI-C(18) diffusion coefficient, confirming that DiI-C(12) probes l(d), a more fluid membrane environment, and DiI-C(18) probes the l(o) phase. Domains probed by DiI-C(12) exhibited an early (10 s) and transient decrease of fluorescence lifetime after the onset of shear while domains probed by DiI-C(18) exhibited a delayed decrease of fluorescence lifetime that was sustained for the 2 min the cells were subjected to flow. The diffusion coefficient of DiI-C(18) increased after shear imposition, while that of DiI-C(12) remained constant. Determination of the number of molecules (N) in the control volume suggested that DiI-C(12)-labeled domains increased in N immediately after step-shear, while N for DiI-C(18)-stained membrane transiently decreased. These results demonstrate that membrane microdomains are differentially sensitive to fluid shear stress.
