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

Sodium para-aminosalicylic acid (PAS-Na) has been used to treat patients with manganism, a neurological disease caused by manganese (Mn) toxicity, although the exact molecular mechanisms are yet unclear. The present study aims to investigate the effect of PAS-Na on glutamate (Glu) turnover of Mn-exposed rats. The results showed that Mn concentrations in the hippocampus, thalamus, striatum, and globus pallidus were increased in Mn-exposed rats. Moreover, the results also demonstrated that subacute Mn exposure (15 mg/kg for 4 weeks) interrupted the homeostasis of Glu by increasing Glu levels but decreasing glutamine (Gln) levels in the hippocampus, thalamus, striatum, and globus pallidus in male Sprague-Dawley rats. These effects lasted even after Mn exposure had been ceased for a period of 6 weeks. Meanwhile the main Glu turnover enzymes [Gln synthetase (GS) and phosphate-activated glutaminase (PAG)] and transporters [Glu/aspartate transporter (GLAST) and Glu transporter-1 (GLT-1)] were also affected by Mn treatment. Additionally, PAS-Na treatment recovered the aforementioned changes induced by Mn. Taken together, these results indicate that Glu turnover might be involved in Mn-induced neurotoxicity. PAS-Na treatment could promote Mn excretions and recover the changes in Glu turnover induced by Mn, and a prolonged PAS-Na treatment may be more effective.
