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

The cholesteryl ester transfer protein (CETP) transfers lipids among lipoprotein particles and plays a central role in lipoprotein metabolism. Humans with genetic deficiency of CETP have both elevated HDL cholesterol and apolipoprotein A-I concentrations as well as decreased LDL cholesterol and apolipoprotein B levels. The present study was undertaken to elucidate the metabolic basis for the decreased LDL cholesterol and apo B levels in CETP deficiency. We conducted a series of in vivo apo B kinetic studies in tow unrelated homozygotes with CETP deficiency and in control subjects. A primed constant infusion of stable isotopically labeled phenylalanine was administered to the two CETP deficient subjects and control subjects and apo B kinetic parameters in VLDL, intermediate density lipoproteins, and LDL were obtained by using a multicompartmental model. The fractional catabolic rates (FCR) of LDL apo B were significantly increased in the CETP-deficient subjects (0.56 and 0.75/d) compared with the controls (mean FCR of 0.39/d). Furthermore, the production rates of apo B in VLDL and intermediate density lipoprotein were decreased by 55% and 81%, respectively, in CETP deficiency compared with the controls. In conclusion, CETP-deficient subjects were demonstrated to have substantially increased catabolic rates of LDL apo B as the primary metabolic basis for the low plasma levels of LDL apo B. This result indicates that the LDL receptor pathway may be up-regulated in CETP deficiency.
