Treatment of Cells and Tissues with Chromate Maximizes Mitochondrial 2Fe2S EPR Signals.
Article in International journal of molecular sciences, 2019. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 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
In a previous study on chromate toxicity, an increase in the 2Fe2S electron paramagnetic resonance (EPR) signal from mitochondria was found upon addition of chromate to human bronchial epithelial cells and bovine airway tissue ex vivo. This study was undertaken to show that a chromate-induced increase in the 2Fe2S EPR signal is a general phenomenon that can be used as a low-temperature EPR method to determine the maximum concentration of 2Fe2S centers in mitochondria. First, the low-temperature EPR method to determine the concentration of 2Fe2S clusters in cells and tissues is fully developed for other cells and tissues. The EPR signal for the 2Fe2S clusters N1b in Complex I and/or S1 in Complex II and the 2Fe2S cluster in xanthine oxidoreductase in rat liver tissue do not change in intensity because these clusters are already reduced; however, the EPR signals for N2, the terminal cluster in Complex I, and N4, the cluster preceding the terminal cluster, decrease upon adding chromate. More surprising to us, the EPR signals for N3, the cluster preceding the 2Fe2S cluster in Complex I, also decrease upon adding chromate. Moreover, this method is used to obtain the concentration of the 2Fe2S clusters in white blood cells where the 2Fe2S signal is mostly oxidized before treatment with chromate and becomes reduced and EPR detectable after treatment with chromate. The increase of the g = 1.94 2Fe2S EPR signal upon the addition of chromate can thus be used to obtain the relative steady-state concentration of the 2Fe2S clusters and steady-state concentration of Complex I and/or Complex II in mitochondria.
