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

Human acyl-CoA oxidase 1 (ACOX1) is a rate-limiting enzyme in peroxisomal fatty acids beta-oxidation and its deficiency is associated with a lethal, autosomal recessive disease, called pseudoneonatal-adrenoleukodystrophy. Two mRNA variants, transcribed from a single gene encode ACOX1a or ACOX1b isoforms, respectively. Recently, a mutation in a splice site has been reported [H. Rosewich, H.R. Waterham, R.J. Wanders, S. Ferdinandusse, M. Henneke, D. Hunneman, J. Gartner, Pitfall in metabolic screening in a patient with fatal peroxisomal beta-oxidation defect, Neuropediatrics 37 (2006) 95-98.], which results in the defective peroxisomal fatty acids beta-oxidation. Here, we show that these mRNA splice variants are expressed differentially in human liver. We investigated the biochemical role of the two human ACOX1 isoforms by heterologous expression of the catalytically active ACOX1a and ACOX1b enzymes in Escherichia coli. ACOX1a seems to be more labile and exhibits only 50% specific activity toward palmitoyl-CoA as compared to ACOX1b.
