Ketogenic diet in action: Metabolic profiling of pyruvate dehydrogenase deficiency.
Article in Molecular genetics and metabolism reports, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
The pyruvate dehydrogenase complex serves as the main connection between cytosolic glycolysis and the tricarboxylic acid cycle within mitochondria. An infant with pyruvate dehydrogenase complex deficiency was treated with vitamin B1 supplementation and a ketogenic diet. These dietary modifications resolved the renal tubular reabsorption, central apnea, and transfusion-dependent anemia. A concurrent metabolome analysis demonstrated the resolution of the amino aciduria and an increased total amount of substrates in the tricarboxylic acid cycle, reflecting the improved mitochondrial energetics. Glutamate was first detected in the cerebrospinal fluid, accompanied by a clinical improvement, after the ketogenic ratio was increased to 3:1; thus, glutamate levels in cerebrospinal fluid may represent a biomarker for neuronal recovery. Metabolomic analyses of body fluids are useful for monitoring therapeutic effects in infants with inborn errors of carbohydrate metabolism.
