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

Hepatic targeting of proteins utilizing the sugar-recognition mechanism was investigated in mice after intravenous injection. Five proteins with different molecular weights, i.e., bovine gamma-globulins (IgG), bovine serum albumin (BSA), recombinant human superoxide dismutase (SOD), soybean trypsin inhibitor (STI), and chicken egg white lysozyme (LZM), were modified with 2-imino-2-methoxyethyl 1-thiogalactoside to obtain galactosylated proteins (Gal-IgG, Gal-BSA, Gal-SOD, Gal-STI, and Gal-LZM). The numbers of galactose residues were 38, 20, 11, 6, and 5 for Gal-IgG, Gal-BSA, Gal-SOD, Gal-STI, and Gal-LZM, respectively. All galactosylated proteins were dose-dependently taken up by the liver and the relative amount accumulated in the liver was decreased with an increase of the administered dose. At low doses (0.05 and 0.1 mg/kg), Gal-IgG, Gal-BSA, and Gal-SOD could be taken up by the liver up to more than 70-80% of dose within 10 min after intravenous injection, but the maximum amounts accumulated in the liver were approximately 40 and 30% of the dose for Gal-STI and Gal-LZM, respectively.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)
