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

We have generated mice transgenic for a human multidrug resistance (MDR)3 mini-gene driven by a hamster vimentin promoter. The MDR3 gene encodes a P-Glycoprotein that resembles the mouse multidrug resistance 2 P-Glycoprotein shown to be involved in the translocation of the phospholipid phosphatidylcholine through the hepatocyte canalicular membrane (Smit et al., 1993. Cell. 75:451-462). The vimentin promoter drives expression of the MDR3 transgene in mesenchymal tissues and in the eye lens. We show here that the presence of human multidrug resistance 3 P-Glycoprotein in the lens results in a severe lenticular pathology. Lens structural abnormalities initiate at a late embryonic stage and increase during postnatal lens development. Differentiation of the primary fibers is affected, and the terminal differentiation of the lens epithelium into secondary fibers is also perturbed. The ultrastructural alterations, particularly of the lens plasma membranes, resemble those identified in congenital mouse osmotic cataract.
