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

Uric acid (UA), the end-product of purine metabolism, has a complicated physiological role in the body, showing the combination of regulating inflammatory response, promoting oxidation/anti-oxidation, and modifying autophagy activity in vivo. Meanwhile, various research and theories support that inflammation, oxidative stress, and other risk factors promote the onset and progression of affective disorders and neurodegenerative diseases. Existing studies suggest that UA may be involved in the pathophysiological processes of affective disorders in various ways, and there has been a gradual advance in the understanding of the interplay between UA levels and affective disorders and neurodegenerative diseases. This review summarized the role of UA in the process of inflammation, oxidative stress, and autophagy. On this basis, we discussed the correlation between UA and affective disorders and several neurodegenerative diseases, and simultaneously analyzed the possible mechanism of its influence on affective disorders and neurodegenerative diseases, to provide a theoretical basis for UA as a biomarker or therapeutic target for the diagnosis of these diseases.
