Untargeted metabolomic analysis of urine samples for diagnosis of inherited metabolic disorders.
Article in Functional & integrative genomics, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 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
Metabolomics has become an important tool for clinical research, especially for analyzing inherited metabolic disorders (IMDs). The purpose of this study was to explore the performance of metabolomics in diagnosing IMDs using an untargeted metabolomic approach. A total of 40 urine samples were collected: 20 samples from healthy children and 20 from pediatric patients, of whom 13 had confirmed IMDs and seven had suspected IMDs. Samples were analyzed by Orbitrap mass spectrometry in positive and negative mode alternately, coupled with ultra-high liquid chromatography. Raw data were processed using Compound Discovery 2.0 ™ and then exported for partial least squares discriminant analysis (PLS-DA) by SIMCA-P 14.1. After comparing with m/zCloud and chemSpider libraries, compounds with similarity above 80% were selected and normalized for subsequent relative quantification analysis. The uncommon compounds discovered were analyzed based on the Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes to explore their possible metabolic pathways. All IMDs patients were successfully distinguished from controls in the PLS-DA. Untargeted metabolomics revealed a broader metabolic spectrum in patients than what is observed using routine chromatographic methods for detecting IMDs. Higher levels of certain compounds were found in all 13 confirmed IMD patients and 5 of 7 suspected IMD patients. Several potential novel markers emerged after relative quantification. Untargeted metabolomics may be able to diagnose IMDs from urine and may deepen insights into the disease by revealing changes in various compounds such as amino acids, acylcarnitines, organic acids, and nucleosides. Such analyses may identify biomarkers to improve the study and treatment of IMDs.
