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

Low density lipoproteins (LDL) in which apoB is the only protein constituent inhibit lymphocyte activation induced by the mitogen phytohemagglutinin. LDL suppress primary induction events, most notably enhanced Ca2+ accumulation, which occur as a result of mitogen-triggered alterations of the lymphocyte plasma membrane. Receptors in the lymphocyte membrane--designated "immunoregulatory receptors"--recognize and bind apoB-LDL. Under conditions of receptor saturation, about 22,500 +/- 4500 LDL particles are bound to the lymphocyte surface at 4 and 37 degrees C. The dissociation constant, Kd, is 1.76 X 10(-7) M and is also independent of temperature. Suppression of phytohemagglutinin-induced 45Ca2+ accumulation by LDL is a receptor-dependent process: inhibition is contingent on attachment of LDL to the immunoregulatory receptors. This conclusion is supported by three lines of evidence. First, heparin restores the susceptibility of the lymphocytes to mitogenic challenge by displacing membrane-bound LDL. Second, the immnoregulatory potency of LDL correlates directly with the amount of LDL bound at the cell surface. Third, LDL-Sepharose complexes, which cannot be internalized by the cells, are as immunosuppressive as soluble LDL. This demonstrates that membrane-bound plasma lipoproteins influence the behavior of intact cells.
