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

Oxidative stress and metabolic dysregulation in goblet cells are pivotal in ulcerative colitis (UC) pathogenesis. TIGAR promotes the synthesis of NADPH and contributes to mitigate oxidative stress, but how it regulates NADPH production and affects UC remains unclear. Here we demonstrate that TIGAR inhibits lactylation of the key NADPH-synthesizing enzymes G6PD (at K432) and 6PGD (at K38), thereby preserving their enzymatic activities by promoting G6PD homodimer formation and 6PGD binding to NADP
