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

The submitochondrial distribution of the overt and latent carnitine palmitoyltransferases (CPT I and II respectively) of rat liver mitochondria were studied. Separation of outer and inner membranes, as well as of a fraction of intermediate density consisting of contact sites between the two membranes, was achieved, as judged by the distribution of marker enzymes. Both CPT I and CPT II were found to be enriched within the contact- site fraction of mitochondria. These data show that the two carnitine acyltransferases are distributed non-uniformly within their respective membranes, and that subpopulations of the two enzymes occur in close proximity within the mitochondrial membrane structure, while retaining their different accessibilities to cytosolic and matrix pools of metabolites. As the number of contact sites is known to vary with changes in the energy status of mitochondria, the possibility that such changes may acutely affect the proportion of CPT I within the distinctive lipid environment of the contact sites, and thus its overall kinetic characteristics, is discussed.
