Oxidative Stress and Antioxidant Defense in the Brain of Bat Species with Different Feeding Habits.
Article in International journal of molecular sciences, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 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
Assessing the levels of oxidative stress markers and antioxidant enzymes in the brain is crucial in evaluating its antioxidant capacity and understanding the influence of various dietary patterns on brain well-being. This study aimed to investigate the antioxidant status and oxidative damage in the brain of bat species with different feeding habits to gain insights into their protective mechanisms against oxidative stress and their interspecific variation. The levels of oxidative damage markers and the activities of antioxidants were measured in the brain of four bat species with different feeding habits, namely insectivorous, frugivorous, nectarivorous, and hematophagous. Insectivorous bats showed higher levels of SOD and fumarase compared to the other groups, while hematophagous bats showed lower levels of these enzymes. On the other hand, the activities of glutathione peroxidase and glutathione S-transferase were higher in hematophagous bats and lower in insectivorous bats. The carbonyl groups and malondialdehyde levels were lower in frugivores, while they were similar in the other feeding guilds. Nitrite and nitrate levels were higher in the hematophagous group and relatively lower in all other groups. The GSSG/GSH ratio was higher in the hematophagous group and lower in frugivores. Overall, our results indicate that the levels of oxidative stress markers and the activities of antioxidant enzymes in the brain vary significantly among bat species with different feeding habitats. The findings suggest that the antioxidant status of the brain is influenced by diet and feeding habits.
