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

Vesicles and micelles, the major carriers of cholesterol in bile, play a role in the formation of cholesterol gallstones. A simple and rapid ultracentrifugation method was developed to isolate these biliary cholesterol carriers when only microliter amounts of bile were available. The proposed method employs a 46 to 0% sucrose density gradient, a NVT90 near-vertical rotor, and a centrifugation time of one hour. As little as 25 microL of bile can be used with no disruption of the carriers. The method was validated by comparison with gel filtration column chromatography using 6 mM taurocholate in the elution buffer. The sucrose linear density gradient ultracentrifugation procedure described here is simple, fast, and compares favorably with the gel filtration chromatography method for the separation of cholesterol carriers from bile.
