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

Microarrays containing 45 different lectins were analyzed to identify global changes in the glycosylation of serum glycoproteins from mice exposed to whole-body γ-radiation. The results showed that radiation exposure increased and decreased the relative amounts of α-2,3- and α-2,6-sialic acids, respectively. The expression of α-2,3- and α-2,6-sialyltransferase genes in the liver was analyzed to determine whether changes in their expression were responsible for the sialic acid changes. The increase in α-2,3-sialic acid correlated with St3gal5 upregulation after radiation exposure; however, a decrease in St6gal1 expression was not observed. Analysis of a PCR array of genes expressed in irradiated mouse livers revealed that irradiation did not alter the expression of most of the included genes. These results suggest that glycomic screening of serum glycoproteins using lectin microarrays can be a powerful tool for identifying radiation-induced changes in the post-translational addition of sugar moieties to proteins. In addition, the results indicate that altered sialylation of glycoproteins may be an initial response to acute radiation exposure.
