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

A family with hypobetalipoproteinaemia was studied to examine the Lp(a) lipoprotein, lipoprotein cholesterol, and triglyceride composition of the serum lipids. Lp(a) lipoprotein was measured by immunoassay. Serum lipoproteins were separated by ultracentrifugation. Cholesterol and triglycerides were measured using standard enzymatic assays. Serum apolipoprotein B was low and Lp(a) undetectable in the index patient and in her father and son. Separation of the lipoproteins by ultracentrifugation showed a low cholesterol content of serum low density lipoprotein in the affected family members and also a low triglyceride content of high density lipoprotein particles in two affected members. It is concluded that serum lipoprotein cholesterol is altered in hypobetalipoproteinaemia, and family members of index cases have undetectable serum Lp(a) lipoprotein concentrations.
