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

Lead (Pb) has been shown to disrupt cellular energy metabolism, which may underlie the learning deficits and cognitive dysfunctions associated with environmental Pb exposure. The voltage-dependent anion channel (VDAC) plays a central role in regulating energy metabolism in neurons by maintaining cellular ATP levels and regulating calcium buffering, and studies have shown that VDAC expression is associated with learning in mice. In this study, we examined the effect of 5 and 10microM Pb on VDAC expression in vitro in order to determine whether Pb alters VDAC expression levels in neuronal cell lines. PC-12 and SH-SY5Y cells were used since they differentiate to resemble primary neuronal cells. VDAC expression levels were significantly decreased 48 h after exposure to Pb in both cell lines. In contrast, exposure to 24 h of hypoxia failed to produce a decrease in VDAC, suggesting that decreased VDAC expression is not a general cellular stress response but is a result of Pb exposure. This decreased VDAC expression was also correlated with a corresponding decrease in cellular ATP levels. Real-time reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction demonstrated a significant decrease in messenger RNA levels for the VDAC1 isoform, indicating that Pb reduces transcription of VDAC1. These results demonstrate that exposure to 5 and 10microM Pb reduces VDAC transcription and expression and is associated with reduced cellular ATP levels.
