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

Human 'acute-phase' serum amyloid A protein (A-SAA) is a major acute-phase reactant (APR) and an apolipoprotein of high density lipoprotein 3 (HDL3). We have examined several parameters of A-SAA biosynthesis in PLC/PRF/5 hepatoma cells in response to monocyte conditioned medium (MoCM) and dual treatment with interleukin-1 beta and interleukin-6 (IL-1 beta + IL-6). Treatment of PLC/PRF/5 cells with MoCM or IL-1 beta + IL-6 caused a dramatic and rapid increase in A-SAA mRNA and protein synthesis; A-SAA mRNA was first detectable at 3 h, with peak levels reached by 24 h. A-SAA mRNA accumulation is accompanied by a gradual and homogeneous decrease in the length of the A-SAA poly(A) tail; the poly(A) tail shortening does not apparently affect the intrinsic stability of A-SAA mRNA. Analysis of RNA isolated from the ribonucleoprotein, monosome and polysome fractions of cytokine-treated PLC/PRF/5 cells showed that most A-SAA mRNA was associated with small polyribosomes, regardless of time post-stimulus, suggesting that the translational efficiency of A-SAA mRNA is constant throughout cytokine-driven induction. Moreover, the transit time of A-SAA protein out of the cell is also constant throughout the time course of induction. These data provide evidence of a paradox with regard to the transcriptional upregulation of A-SAA by IL-1 beta + IL-6 and the relative synthesis of A-SAA protein and suggest a role for post-transcriptional control of A-SAA biosynthesis during the acute phase.
