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

Reaction pathways of side products (formate, glycolate, and tartronate) from dihydroxyfumarate (DHF) were theoretically investigated as DHF is an intermediate in the process of producing tartrates and oxalate from glyoxylate of the citric acid cycle. The proposed pathways for each reaction were mapped by density functional theory (DFT) calculations. The transitions states were confirmed by analyzing the vibrational frequency and the intrinsic reaction coordinate (IRC) theory. The corresponding reaction activation energy, enthalpy change, Gibb's free energy change, and rate of reactions were calculated to get a clear picture of the whole reaction pathway. In the whole process, the decarboxylation reaction showed the highest energy barrier of 20-23 kcal/mol. Proton transfer and hydroxylation reactions were almost barrierless. As most of these reactions have very low energy barrier, our findings elucidate the high probability of those reactions under experimental conditions.
