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

Hepatic cytosolic alcohol and aldehyde dehydrogenases (ADHs and ALDHs) catalyze the biotransformation of xenobiotics (e.g., cyclophosphamide and ethanol) and vitamin A. Because age-dependent hepatic abundance of these proteins is unknown, we quantified protein expression of ADHs and ALDH1A1 in a large cohort of pediatric and adult human livers by liquid chromatography coupled with tandem mass spectrometry proteomics. Purified proteins were used as calibrators. Two to three surrogate peptides per protein were quantified in trypsin digests of liver cytosolic samples and calibrator proteins under optimal conditions of reproducibility. Neonatal levels of ADH1A, ADH1B, ADH1C, and ALDH1A1 were 3-, 8-, 146-, and 3-fold lower than the adult levels, respectively. For all proteins, the abundance steeply increased during the first year of life, which mostly reached adult levels during early childhood (age between 1 and 6 years). Only for ADH1A protein abundance in adults (age > 18 year) was ∼40% lower relative to the early childhood group. Abundances of ADHs and ALDH1A1 were not associated with sex in samples with age > 1 year compared with males. Known single nucleotide polymorphisms had no effect on the protein levels of these proteins. Quantification of ADHs and ALDH1A1 protein levels could be useful in predicting disposition and response of substrates of these enzymes in younger children.
