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

Although moderate homocysteine (HCY) elevation is associated with neural tube defects (NTDs), the underlying mechanisms have not been elucidated. In this study, we aimed to investigate that whether HCY-induced NTDs were associated with oxidative stress and methyl metabolism in chick embryos. The potential role of miR-124 in neurogenesis was also investigated. In this study, increased intracellular oxidative species and alterations in DNA methylation were observed following HCY treatment. This alteration coincided with decreases of Mn superoxide dismutase and glutathione peroxidase activities, as well as the expression of anti-rabbit DNA methyltransferase (DNMT) 1 and 3a. In addition, HCY induced significant decreases of S-adenosylmethionine (SAM)/S-adenosylhomocysteine (SAH) (
