Energy Metabolism Under Stress: Late-Stage Leigh Syndrome Reveals Profound Cardiometabolic Perturbations in Ndufs4 KO Mice.

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
The deficiency of mitochondrial complex I (CI), a key regulator of cellular energy homeostasis and metabolic flexibility, is a prevalent driver of cardiovascular pathology in mitochondrial disorders. The Ndufs4 knockout (KO) mouse model of Leigh syndrome (LS), which lacks a critical CI subunit, exhibits severe cardiac abnormalities secondary to encephalomyopathy. However, the metabolic basis of LS-associated cardiac dysfunction remains poorly understood. This study aims to evaluate how whole-body CI deficiency affects cardiac bioenergetics and metabolism in late-stage Ndufs4 KO mice. We assessed respiratory chain enzyme activities and oxygen consumption rates using kinetic spectrophotometric assays and high-resolution respirometry, respectively, in mitochondria isolated from Ndufs4 KO and wild-type mouse hearts. Cardiometabolic profiling was performed on a well-powered cohort, employing untargeted GC-TOFMS,
