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

Ethylmalonic (EMA) and methylsuccinic (MSA) acids concentrations are elevated in tissues and body fluids of patients with ethylmalonic encephalopathy (EE), a mitochondrial disorder associated with basal ganglia abnormalities. To clarify the pathophysiology of this disorder, we evaluated the effects of EMA and MSA on bioenergetics, redox homeostasis and mitochondrial permeability transition (MPT) in rat striatum. We verified that EMA and MSA reduced state 3 and uncoupled respiration and inhibited the activities of α-ketoglutarate dehydrogenase and complex IV of the electron transport chain. Both organic acids also decreased mitochondrial membrane potential and Ca
