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

Peroxisomes are dynamic organelles that play an essential role in a variety of metabolic pathways. Peroxisomal dysfunction can lead to various biochemical abnormalities and result in abnormal metabolite levels, such as increased very long-chain fatty acid or reduced plasmalogen levels. The metabolite abnormalities in peroxisomal disorders are used in the diagnostics of these disorders. In this paper we discuss in detail the different diagnostic tests available for peroxisomal disorders and focus specifically on the important role of biochemical and functional studies in cultured skin fibroblasts in reaching the right diagnosis. Several examples are shown to underline the power of such studies.
