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

Coenzyme Q10 (CoQ10) is a naturally occurring biochemical cofactor found in all human cell membranes in two interconvertible forms: oxidized ubiquinone and reduced ubiquinol. Clinical studies indicate that different CoQ10 formulations have different absorption rates, highlighting research comparing their systemic bioavailability. This study compared the oral bioavailability of cocrystal formulation soft gels (test product), a novel ubiquinol formulation, and ubiquinone formulation (reference product) in a randomized, double-blind, two-period crossover study with 12 healthy subjects under fasting conditions. The secondary objective of this study was to evaluate the safety and tolerability of the ubiquinol formulation. The pharmacokinetic analyses indicated that the test ubiquinol formulation demonstrated substantially higher relative systemic bioavailability compared with the ubiquinone reference. The geometric mean ratios (test/reference) for baseline-corrected peak plasma concentration (C
