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

CONTEXT AND

objectivePheochromocytomas and paragangliomas (PGLs) are neuroendocrine tumors of sympathetic or parasympathetic paraganglia. Nearly 40% of PGLs are caused by germline mutations. The present study investigated the effect of genetic alterations on metabolic networks in PGLs.

designHomogenates of 32 sporadic PGLs and 48 PGLs from patients with mutations in SDHB, SDHD, SDHAF-2, VHL, RET, and NF-1 were subjected to proton ((1)H) nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) spectroscopy at 500 MHz for untargeted and HPLC tandem mass spectrometry for targeted metabolite profiling.

results(1)H NMR spectroscopy identified 28 metabolites in PGLs of which 12 showed genotype-specific differences. Part of these results published earlier reported low complex II activity (P < .0001) and low ATP/ADP/AMP content (P < .001) in SDH-related PGLs compared with sporadics and PGLs of other genotypes. Extending these results, low levels of N-acetylaspartic acid (NAA; P < .05) in SDH tumors and creatine (P < .05) in VHL tumors were observed compared with sporadics and other genotypes. Positive correlation was observed between NAA and ATP/ADP/AMP content (P < .001) and NAA and complex II activity (P < .0001) of PGLs. Targeted purine analysis in PGLs showed low adenine in cluster 1 compared with cluster 2 tumors (SDH P < .0001; VHL P < .05) whereas lower levels (P < .05) of guanosine and hypoxanthine were observed in RET tumors compared with SDH tumors. Principal component analysis (PCA) of metabolites could distinguish PGLs of different genotypes.

conclusionsThe present study gives a comprehensive picture of alterations in energy metabolism in SDH- and VHL-related PGLs and establishes the interrelationship of energy metabolism and amino acid and purine metabolism in PGLs.
