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

Secretory proteins migrate from the rough endoplasmic reticulum (ER) to the Golgi complex at different rates. Selective retention of specific proteins to rough-ER membrane constituents could explain this phenomenon. We have permeabilized HepG2 cells with low concentrations of saponin. Release of newly synthesized proteins was studied after brief labelling in the presence of [35S]methionine. The efflux of several secretory proteins was studied at various saponin concentrations; a 2-fold higher saponin concentration was required to release transferrin compared with that required to release albumin and orosomucoid. Glucosidase II, a soluble resident protein of the ER, is released at the same saponin concentration as albumin. Saponin did not destroy the membrane skeleton structure; at the concentrations used, the integral membrane protein G of vesicular-stomatitis virus remained fully associated with the cells.
