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

Using the cDNA for rat liver mitochondrial carnitine palmitoyltransferase I (CPT I; EC 2.3.1.21) as a probe, we isolated its counterpart as three overlapping clones from a human liver cDNA library. Both the nucleotide sequence of the human cDNA and the predicted primary structure of the protein (773 aa) proved to be very similar to those of the rat enzyme (82% and 88% identity, respectively). The CPT I mRNA size was also found to be the same (approximately 4.7 kb) in both species. Screening of a human genomic library with the newly obtained cDNA yielded a positive clone of approximately 6.5 kb which, upon partial analysis, was found to contain at least two complete exons linked by a 2.3-kb intron. Oligonucleotide primers specific to upstream and downstream regions of one of the exon/intron junctions were tested in PCRs with DNA from a panel of somatic cell hybrids, each containing a single human chromosome. The results allowed unambiguous assignment of the human liver CPT I gene to the q (long) arm of chromosome 11. Additional experiments established that liver and fibroblasts express the same isoform of mitochondrial CPT I, legitimizing the use of fibroblast assays in the differential diagnosis of the "muscle" and "hepatic" forms of CPT deficiency. The data provide insights into the structure of a human CPT I isoform and its corresponding gene and establish unequivocally that CPT I and CPT II are distinct gene products. Availability of the human CPT I cDNA should open the way to an understanding of the genetic basis of inherited CPT I deficiency syndromes, how the liver CPT I gene is regulated, and which tissues other than liver express this particular variant of the enzyme.
