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

Alcohol misuse increases infections and cancer fatalities, but mechanisms underlying its toxicity are ill-defined. We show that alcohol treatment of human tracheobronchial epithelial cells leads to inactivation of giantin-mediated Golgi targeting of glycosylation enzymes. Loss of core 2 N-acetylglucosaminyltransferase 1, which uses only giantin for Golgi targeting, coupled with shifted targeting of other glycosylation enzymes to Golgi matrix protein 130-Golgi reassembly stacking protein 65, the site normally used by core 1 enzyme, results in loss of sialyl Lewis x and increase of sialyl Lewis a and α2-6sialo mucin O-glycans. The α2-6sialo mucin O-glycans induced by alcohol cause death of U937 macrophages mediated by sialic acid-binding immunoglobulin-like lectin 7. These results provide a mechanistic insight into the cause of the toxic effects of alcohol and might contribute to the development of therapies to alleviate its toxicity.
