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

Friedreich Ataxia (FRDA), the most frequent inherited ataxia, is not only characterized by progressive gait and limb ataxia, but in most cases is also accompanied by a severe hypertrophic cardiomyopathy. This life threatening symptom can be ameliorated by the administration of idebenone, a short chain quinone antioxidant, supporting additional evidence that oxidative stress plays a major role in the pathogenesis of this disease. In this study we analyze the combinatorial effect of different antioxidants on cell viability of FRDA fibroblasts and of RAT-1 immortalized fibroblasts exposed to oxidative stress. We find that an equimolar mixture of idebenone and vitamin E is more potent than each of the compound alone. Increased potency was also obtained with a novel synthetic antioxidant (Fe-Aox29) combining the active groups from both idebenone and vitamin E. These results indicate, that idebenone and vitamin E might act synergistically to counteract oxidative stress in fibroblasts from FRDA patients.
