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

Background: Transferrin receptor 1 (TfR1), an intracellular iron receptor, has multiple biological functions. We have previously reported that aortic TfR1 expression increases in human and murine abdominal aortic aneurysm, but its role in the development of atherosclerosis remains unclear. In the present study, we generated apolipoprotein-E (ApoE) and TfR1 deficient mice and examined the impact of its deletion on the development of atherosclerosis. Methods and results: Homozygous ApoE deficient ( Conclusions: These results indicate that TfR1 deletion attenuates the development of atherosclerotic lesion formation in
