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

The complex between lipoprotein lipase (LPL) and its endothelial receptor (GPIHBP1) is responsible for the lipolytic processing of triglyceride-rich lipoproteins (TRLs) along the capillary lumen, a physiologic process that releases lipid nutrients for vital organs such as heart and skeletal muscle. LPL activity is regulated in a tissue-specific manner by endogenous inhibitors (angiopoietin-like [ANGPTL] proteins 3, 4, and 8), but the molecular mechanisms are incompletely understood. ANGPTL4 catalyzes the inactivation of LPL monomers by triggering the irreversible unfolding of LPL's α/β-hydrolase domain. Here, we show that this unfolding is initiated by the binding of ANGPTL4 to sequences near LPL's catalytic site, including β2, β3-α3, and the lid. Using pulse-labeling hydrogen‒deuterium exchange mass spectrometry, we found that ANGPTL4 binding initiates conformational changes that are nucleated on β3-α3 and progress to β5 and β4-α4, ultimately leading to the irreversible unfolding of regions that form LPL's catalytic pocket. LPL unfolding is context dependent and varies with the thermal stability of LPL's α/β-hydrolase domain (
