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 standardized simple but sensitive enzyme-linked immunoassays to understand a relationship between intracellular levels and secretion rates of apoB. The assays were based on commercially available antibodies and were specific to human apoB. A monoclonal antibody, 1D1, was immobilized on microtiter wells and incubated with different amounts of low density lipoproteins to obtain a standard curve. Conditioned media were added to other wells in parallel, and the amount of apoB was quantitated from a linear regression curve. To standardize conditions for the measurement of intracellular apoB, cells were homogenized and solubilized with different concentrations of taurocholate. We found that 0.5% taurocholate was sufficient to solubilize all the apoB in HepG2, Caco-2, and McA-RH7777 cells. Next, a standard curve was prepared in the presence of taurocholate and used to determine intracellular levels of apoB in different cell lines. The intracellular levels (pmol/mg cell protein) and the rates of secretion (pmol/mg/h) of apoB100 were positively correlated (r2 = 0.81, P = 0.0009) in HepG2 cells. Furthermore, a positive correlation (r2 = 0.88, P < 0.0001) was found between intracellular and secreted apoB42 in stably transfected McA-RH7777 cells. In contrast, no correlation was observed for human apoB28 and apoB18 in stably transfected cells that were secreted either partially associated or completely unassociated with lipoproteins. These studies indicated that the rate of secretion of lipid-associated apoB, but not the lipid-free apoB, was tightly controlled.
