The Balance of Ketoacids α-Ketoglutarate and α-Ketoglutaramate Reflects the Degree of the Development of Hepatoencephalopathy in Rats.
Review in International journal of molecular sciences, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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.
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
Hepatoencephalopathy (HE) is a liver disease that can lead to brain pathology and the impairment of human cognitive abilities. The objective assessment of HE disease severity is difficult due to the lack of reliable diagnostic markers. This paper examines the background to the emergence of HE markers and provides a brief overview of research results indicating the diagnostic value of potential markers isolated from a wide range of metabolites analyzed. It has been suggested that metabolites of the glutamate-glutamine (Glu-Gln) cycle, α-ketoglutarate (αKG), and α-ketoglutaramate (αKGM) can act as such markers of HE. The informative value of these markers was revealed during a comparative analysis of the distribution of αKG and αKGM in samples of the blood plasma and tissues (liver, kidneys, and brain) of rats exposed to the strong hepatotoxin thioacetamide (TAA). A comparative analysis of the balance of αKG and αKGM, as well as their ratio (αKG/αKGM) in the examined samples of blood plasma and animal tissues in these models, revealed their diagnostic value for assessing the severity of HE and/or monitoring the recovery process.
