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

Perturbations in glyoxylate metabolism lead to the accumulation of oxalate and give rise to primary hyperoxalurias, recessive disorders characterized by kidney stone disease. Loss-of-function mutations in HOGA1 (formerly DHDPSL) are responsible for primary hyperoxaluria type III. HOGA1 is a mitochondrial 4-hydroxy-2-oxoglutarate aldolase catalyzing the fourth step in the hydroxyproline pathway. We investigated hydroxyproline metabolites in the urine of patients with primary hyperoxaluria type III using gas chromatography-mass spectroscopy. Significant increases in concentrations of 4-hydroxy-2-oxoglutarate and its precursor and derivative 4-hydroxyglutamate and 2,4-dihydroxyglutarate, respectively, were found in all patients as compared to carriers of the corresponding mutations or healthy controls. Despite a functional block in the conversion of hydroxyproline to glyoxylate--the immediate precursor of oxalate--the production of oxalate increases. To explain this apparent contradiction, we propose a model of glyoxylate compartmentalization in which cellular glyoxylate is normally prevented from contact with the cytosol where it can be oxidized to oxalate. We propose that HOGA1 deficiency results in the accumulation of 4-hydroxy-2-oxoglutarate in the mitochondria and its transport into the cytosol where it is converted to glyoxylate by a different cytosolic aldolase. In human hepatocyte cell lines, we detected a cytosolic 4-hydroxy-2-oxoglutarate aldolase activity not due to HOGA1. These studies provide a diagnostic tool for primary hyperoxaluria type III and shed light on glyoxylate metabolism and the pathogenesis of primary hyperoxalurias.
