Phenothiazine antioxidants increase mitochondrial biogenesis and frataxin levels in Friedreich's ataxia cells.
Article in MedChemComm, 2018. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 6 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
Friedreich's ataxia (FRDA) is a progressive neurodegenerative disease that is linked to transcriptional repression of the nuclear FXN gene encoding the essential mitochondrial protein frataxin (FXN). Compounds that increase frataxin levels may enable effective therapeutic intervention for blunting disease progression. Recently, we showed that lipophilic methylene violet (MV) and methylene blue (MB) analogues both conferred benefit to cultured FRDA cells in several regards, including ROS suppression, maintenance of mitochondrial membrane potential and increased ATP production. Some of the MB analogues were also shown to promote increased frataxin levels and mitochondrial biogenesis. Presently, we report that two of the MV analogues studied previously (
