Chemically induced acute model of sarcosinemia in wistar rats.
Article in Metabolic brain disease, 2016. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 papers.
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.
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
In the present study, we developed an acute chemically induced model of sarcosinemia in Wistar rats. Wistar rats of 7, 14 and 21 postpartum days received sarcosine intraperitoneally in doses of 0.5 mmol/Kg of body weight three time a day at intervals of 3 h. Control animals received saline solution (NaCl 0.85 g%) in the same volume (10 mL/Kg of body weight). The animals were killed after 30 min, 1, 2, 3 or 6 h after the last injection and the brain and the blood were collected for sarcosine measurement. The results showed that plasma and brain sarcosine concentrations achieved levels three to four times higher than the normal levels and decreased in a time-dependent way, achieving normal levels after 6 hours. Considering that experimental animal models are useful to investigate the pathophysiology of human disorders, our model of sarcosinemia may be useful for the research of the mechanisms of neurological dysfunction caused by high tissue sarcosine levels.
