Protection of Membrane Contact Protein by the Methionine Sulfoxide Reductases.
Article in Contact (Thousand Oaks (Ventura County, Calif.)). The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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.
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
In this News and Views, I discuss our recent publication that established how steroidogenic acute regulatory-related lipid transfer domain-3 (STARD3), a membrane contact protein situated at lysosomal membranes, plays a role in the detoxification of cholesterol hydroperoxide. STARD3's methionine residues can be oxidized to methionine sulfoxide by cholesterol hydroperoxide, after which methionine sulfoxide reductases reduce the methionine sulfoxide residues back to methionine. The reaction also results in the reduction of the cholesterol hydroperoxide to an alcohol. The cyclic oxidation and reduction of methionine residues in STARD3 at membrane contact sites creates a catalytically efficient mechanism for detoxification of cholesterol hydroperoxide during cholesterol transport, thus protecting membrane contact sites and the entire cell against the toxicity of cholesterol hydroperoxide.
