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

Danon disease is a genetic deficiency in lysosome-associated membrane protein 2 (LAMP-2), a highly glycosylated constituent of the lysosomal membrane and characterized by a cardiomyopathy, skeletal muscle myopathy, and cognitive impairment. Patients, however, often manifest hepatic abnormalities, but liver function has not been well evaluated and the syndrome is relatively uncommon. Hence, we have taken advantage of a rat that has been deleted of LAMP-2 to study the relative role of LAMP-2 on liver function. Interestingly, rats deficient in LAMP-2 develop a striking increase in serum alkaline phosphatase (ALP) and a decrease in bile flow compared with wild-type littermates. Importantly and by ultrastructural analysis, deficient rats manifest dilated canaliculi that lack microvilli with evidence of bile-containing bodies. Moreover, following bile duct ligation, LAMP-2-deficient rats develop rapid and severe evidence of advanced cholestasis, with an increase in serum bilirubin, as early as 6 h later. In wild-type control rats, multidrug resistance-associated protein 2 (Mrp2) normally concentrates at the bile canalicular membranes to secrete conjugated bilirubin into bile. However, in LAMP-2
