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

backgroundHelicobacter pylori, the main cause of various gastric diseases, infects approximately half of the human population. This pathogen is auxotrophic for cholesterol which it converts to various cholesteryl α-glucoside derivatives, including cholesteryl 6'-acyl α-glucoside (CAG). Since the related biosynthetic enzymes can be translocated to the host cells, the acyl chain of CAG likely comes from its precursor phosphatidylethanolamine (PE) in the host membranes. This work aims at examining how the acyl chain of CAG and PE inhibits the membrane functions, especially bacterial adhesion.

methodsEleven CAGs that differ in acyl chains were used to study the membrane properties of human gastric adenocarcinoma cells (AGS cells), including lipid rafts clustering (monitored by immunofluorescence with confocal microscopy) and lateral membrane fluidity (by the fluorescence recovery after photobleaching). Cell-based and mouse models were employed to study the degree of bacterial adhesion, the analyses of which were conducted by using flow cytometry and immunofluorescence staining, respectively. The lipidomes of H. pylori, AGS cells and H. pylori-AGS co-cultures were analyzed by Ultraperformance Liquid Chromatography-Tandem Mass Spectroscopy (UPLC-MS/MS) to examine the effect of PE(10:0)

resultsCAG10:0, CAG18:3 and CAG22:6 were found to cause the most adverse effect on the bacterial adhesion. Further LC-MS analysis indicated that the treatment of PE(10:0)
