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

Cells tightly regulate lipid structures to fulfill cellular functions and to respond to external stimuli. The biochemical details of the processes that determine lipid structure alterations are often not fully understood. In this manuscript, we present a new epoxidation strategy of unsaturated lipids, which allows the annotation of lipid head group, fatty acid composition, C = C bond position, C = C bond geometry, and sn-isomerism when derivatized lipids are analyzed with corresponding separation and mass spectrometry methods. Tandem mass spectra of epoxidized deprotonated or protonated lipids provide information on head groups, fatty acids, and C = C positions, while MSⁿ of alkali metal adducts reveals sn-isomer compositions. Separation of epoxidation products via reversed-phase liquid chromatography (RPLC) not only distinguishes lipid C = C position and sn-isomers, remaining non-reacted unsaturated lipid C = C bonds photo-isomerize to reveal C = C E/Z configurations. To demonstrate the capabilities of the methodology, C = C positions of LPEs, LPCs, TGs, DGs, PCs, PSs, and PEs are annotated for bovine heart and liver extracts in RPLC-MS
