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

Manganese (Mn) is essential for brain growth and metabolism, but in excess can be a neurotoxicant. The chemical form (species) of Mn influences its kinetics and toxicity. Significant Mn species entering the brain are the Mn(2+) ion and Mn citrate which, along with Mn transferrin, enter the brain by carrier-mediated processes. Although the divalent metal transporter (DMT-1) was suggested to be a candidate for brain Mn uptake, brain Mn influx was not different in Belgrade rats, which do not express functional DMT-1, compared to controls. Brain Mn influx was not sodium dependent or dependent on ATP hydrolysis, but was reduced by mitochondrial energy inhibitors. Mn and Fe do not appear to compete for brain uptake. Brain Mn uptake appears to be mediated by a Ca uptake mechanism, thought to not be a p-type ATPase, but a store-operated calcium channel. Efflux of Mn from the brain was found to be slower than markers used as membrane impermeable reference compounds, suggesting diffusion mediates brain Mn efflux. Owing to carrier-mediated brain Mn influx and diffusion-mediated efflux, slow brain Mn clearance and brain Mn accumulation with repeated excess exposure would be predicted, and have been reported. This may render the brain susceptible to Mn-induced neurotoxicity from excessive Mn exposure.
