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

Proteoglycans carrying either heparan sulfate and/or chondroitin sulfate side chains are typical constituents of basement membranes. The most prominent proteoglycan (perlecan) consists of a 400-500 kDa core protein and three heparan sulfate chains. Electron microscopy and cDNA sequencing show a complex and elongated domain structure for the core protein which in part is homologous to that of the laminin A chain. This structure may be varied by alternative splicing and proteolysis. Integration into basement membranes probably occurs by heparan sulfate binding to laminin and collagen IV, core protein binding to nidogen and by limited self assembly. The proteoglycan is in addition a cell-adhesive protein which is recognized by beta 1 integrins. Several more proteoglycans with smaller core proteins (10-160 kDa) apparently exist in basement membranes but are less well characterized. Biological functions include control of filtration through basement membranes and binding of growth factors and protease inhibitors.
