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

This work presents a controlled study of low-density lipoprotein (LDL) and high-density lipoprotein (HDL) structural changes due to in vitro oxidation with copper ions. The changes were studied by small-angle x-ray scattering (SAXS) and dynamic light scattering (DLS) techniques in the case of LDL and by SAXS, DLS, and Z-scan (ZS) techniques in the case of HDL. SAXS data were analyzed with a to our knowledge new deconvolution method. This method provides the electron density profile of the samples directly from the intensity scattering of the monomers. Results show that LDL particles oxidized for 18 h show significant structural changes when compared to nonoxidized particles. Changes were observed in the electrical density profile, in size polydispersity, and in the degree of flexibility of the APO-B protein on the particle. HDL optical results obtained with the ZS technique showed a decrease of the amplitude of the nonlinear optical signal as a function of oxidation time. In contrast to LDL results reported in the literature, the HDL ZS signal does not lead to a complete loss of nonlinear optical signal after 18 h of copper oxidation. Also, the SAXS results did not indicate significant structural changes due to oxidation of HDL particles, and DLS results showed that a small number of oligomers formed in the sample oxidized for 18 h. All experimental results for the HDL samples indicate that this lipoprotein is more resistant to the oxidation process than are LDL particles.
