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

Monoamine oxidase (MAO) catalyzes the oxidative deamination of monoamines with two isoforms, namely, MAO-A and MAO-B, in mitochondrial outer membranes. These two types of MAO-A and MAO-B participate in changes in levels of neurotransmitter such as serotonin (5-hydroxytryptamine) and dopamine. Selective MAO-A inhibitors have been targeted for anti-depression treatment, while selective MAO-B inhibitors are targets of therapeutic agents for Alzheimer's disease and Parkinson's disease. For this reason, study on the development of MAO inhibitors has recently become important. Here, we describe methods of MAO activity assay, especially continuous spectrophotometric methods, which give relatively high accuracy. MAO-A and MAO-B can be assayed using kynuramine and benzylamine as substrates, respectively, at 316 nm and 250 nm, respectively, to measure their respective products, 4-hydroxyquinoline and benzaldehyde. Inhibition degree and pattern can be analyzed by using the Lineweaver-Burk and secondary plots in the presence of inhibitor, and reversibility of inhibitor can be determined by using the dialysis method.
