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

The adverse alterations in mitochondrial functions can affect neuronal function negatively, as they play a crucial role in neuronal plasticity and death. Direct measurements of mitochondrial activity, including membrane potential and ATP production, are not easily achieved in post-mortem brain and liver samples because most organ functions cease to work after death; in fact, with increasing post-mortem intervals (PMI), the brain and liver tissues deteriorate rapidly. Standard procedures of mitochondria isolation, protein determination expressed as BSA equivalent, and spectrophotometric assessment of pore opening at 540 nm were employed. Our results showed that (a) intact mitochondria may be isolated from rat brain and liver of these rats after storage in animal body (in situ) at -20 °C for 7 days (168 h, post-mortem), (b) some population of these mitochondria can still take up exogenous Ca
