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

NADPH-dependent antioxidant pathways have a critical role in scavenging hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) produced by oxidative phosphorylation. Inadequate scavenging results in H2O2 accumulation and can cause disease. To measure NADPH/NADP(+) redox states, we explored genetically encoded sensors based on steady-state fluorescence anisotropy due to FRET (fluorescence resonance energy transfer) between homologous fluorescent proteins (homoFRET); we refer to these sensors as Apollo sensors. We created an Apollo sensor for NADP(+) (Apollo-NADP(+)) that exploits NADP(+)-dependent homodimerization of enzymatically inactive glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase (G6PD). This sensor is reversible, responsive to glucose-stimulated metabolism and spectrally tunable for compatibility with many other sensors. We used Apollo-NADP(+) to study beta cells responding to oxidative stress and demonstrated that NADPH is significantly depleted before H2O2 accumulation by imaging a Cerulean-tagged version of Apollo-NADP(+) with the H2O2 sensor HyPer.
