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

purpose of reviewMetabolic flux analysis using stable isotope labeled substrates allows for the tracing of carbon, nitrogen, and hydrogen atoms through metabolic pathways and is an invaluable tool for investigating dynamic metabolic changes occurring in health and disease. Studies of flux analysis in vivo are more technically challenging than in vitro or ex vivo but provide a highly detailed view of organ and/or systemic metabolism. We review here recent efforts in studies of diet and nutrition, non-small cell lung cancer, ischemia/reperfusion injury, and hemorrhagic shock where in vivo flux analysis was utilized to analyze metabolic modulation. RECENT

findingsRecent technical strides in the field of metabolomics afford sensitive and quantitative in vivo measurements of metabolic fluxes. Stable isotope tracing with C-glucose, C, N-glutamine, C-propionate, and other substrates are used in combination or in parallel to investigate the interplays among central carbon metabolic pathways and many other areas of the metabolome. SUMMARY: Stable isotope tracing in vivo provides opportunities to investigate physiological processes in the context of the whole animal. These approaches, often NMR spectroscopy or mass spectrometry (MS)-based, are growing in use and will likely find key applications in studying systemic disease, sports physiology, cancer metabolism, and personalized medicine.
