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

The redox balance of coenzyme Q10 in human plasma is a good marker of oxidative stress because the reduced form of coenzyme Q10 (ubiquinol-10) is very sensitive to oxidation and is quantitatively converted to its oxidized form (ubiquinone-10). Here we describe an HPLC method for simultaneous detection of ubiquinol-10 and ubiquinone-10 in human cerebral spinal fluid to meet a recent demand for measuring local oxidative stress. Since the levels of coenzyme Q10 in human cerebral spinal fluid are less than 1/500 of those in human plasma, cerebral spinal fluid extracted with 2-propanol requires concentration for electrochemical detection. Using human plasma diluted 500-fold with physiological saline as a pseudo-cerebral spinal fluid, we found that addition of
