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

backgroundFriedreich's ataxia (FA) is a genetic disorder caused by a severe decrease in FXN (frataxin) protein expression in mitochondria. The clinical manifestation of this disorder is a cerebellar ataxia; however, the common lethal component in FA is cardiomyopathy.

methodsA conditional Fxn

resultsOmaveloxolone significantly improved cardiac contractile function and markers of heart failure in FA such as

conclusionsThese data demonstrate that omaveloxolone significantly improved contractile function but not survival in FA hearts because cardiac fibrosis and wall stress persisted even with omaveloxolone treatment. More studies are warranted to determine the cause of premature death in omaveloxolone-treated FXN-cKO female mice.
