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

Oxidative stress perturbs lipid homeostasis and contributes to metabolic diseases. Though ignored when compared with mitochondrial oxidation, the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) generates reactive oxygen species requiring antioxidant quality control. Using multi-organismal profiling featuring Drosophila, zebrafish, and mammalian hepatocytes, here we characterize the paraoxonase-like C20orf3/adipocyte plasma-membrane-associated protein (APMAP) as an ER-localized antioxidant that suppresses ER lipid oxidation to safeguard ER function. APMAP-depleted cells exhibit defective ER morphology, ER stress, and lipid peroxidation dependent on ER-oxidoreductase 1α (ERO1A), as well as sensitivity to ferroptosis and defects in ApoB-lipoprotein homeostasis. Similarly, organismal APMAP depletion in Drosophila and zebrafish perturbs ApoB-lipoprotein homeostasis. Strikingly, APMAP loss is rescued with chemical antioxidant N-acetyl-cysteine (NAC). Lipidomics identifies that APMAP loss elevates phospholipid peroxidation and boosts ceramides-signatures of lipid stress. Collectively, we propose that APMAP is an ER-localized antioxidant that promotes lipid and lipoprotein homeostasis in the ER network.
