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 previously demonstrated alterations in apolipoprotein B-48 metabolism in the post-prandial state in patients with non-insulin-dependent diabetes mellitus. This study investigates the relationship between hypertriglyceridaemia and post-prandial lipoprotein metabolism. Four groups of patients were examined: non-insulin-dependent diabetic patients, with normal serum triglyceride levels (serum triglyceride < 2.1 mmol l-1; haemoglobin HbA1c 5.5% +/- 0.4%); poorly controlled, non-insulin-dependent diabetic patients with hypertriglyceridaemia (serum triglyceride > 2.1 mmol l-1; HbA1c 8.8% +/- 0.9%); non-diabetic subjects with serum triglycerides < 2.1 mmol l-1; and non-diabetic subjects with hypertriglyceridaemia (serum triglyceride > 2.1 mmol l-1). Subjects were studied fasting and following a high-fat meal (1300 kcal). The triglyceride-rich lipoprotein fraction was isolated by ultracentrifugation (d < 1.006 g ml-1). Apoprotein B-48, apoprotein B-100 and apoprotein E were separated on 4%-15% gradient gels and quantified as a percentage of the fasting concentration by densitometric scanning. Triglyceride-rich lipoprotein apolipoprotein B-48 and apolipoprotein B-100 post-prandial profiles demonstrated a maximum increase either at 2 h or rising still further to a peak at 6 h before falling in the diabetic groups and hypertriglyceridaemic non-diabetic subjects when compared with the normotriglyceridaemic control subjects whose levels decreased after 2 h (P < 0.05). A significantly different triglyceride-rich lipoprotein apolipoprotein E profile was also exhibited by the diabetic patients (P < 0.05). Levels of triglyceride-rich lipoprotein, cholesterol, triglyceride, total protein and apoprotein B were elevated in the hypertriglyceridaemic subjects, both diabetic and non-diabetic. These results indicate that hypertriglyceridaemia is associated with altered metabolism and composition of post-prandial triglyceride-rich lipoprotein particles in both poorly controlled diabetic and non-diabetic subjects.
