The role of thiol-disulfide homeostasis and ischemia-modified albumin in osteosarcopenia.
Article in Irish journal of medical science, 2024. 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
backgroundOxidative stress results from an imbalance between the induction of reactive oxygen species and the ability of cells to metabolize them. Numerous markers can be used to assess the level of oxidative stress. Thiol-disulfide homeostasis (TDH) and ischemia-modified albumin (IMA) are some of them. The aim of this study is to investigate the role of TDH and IMA, which are indicators of oxidative stress, in older patients with osteosarcopenia (OS).
methodsThe study was conducted cross-sectionally in a geriatrics outpatient clinic. Patients who applied to the outpatient clinic for three months were included in the study. Patients with acute infection, delirium, malignancy, severe liver, heart or kidney dysfunction and who did not give their consent for the study were excluded from the study. The study was conducted with 136 patients. Sarcopenia was diagnosed according to muscle ultrasonography (USG) and handgrip strength (HGS) results. Osteopenia/osteoporosis was diagnosed according to bone mineral densitometry (BMD) results. The combination of osteopenia/osteoporosis and sarcopenia was accepted as OS.
resultsNative thiol, total thiol value and nativethiol /totalthiol*100 values were significantly lower in the group with OS (respectively; value = 265 ± 53.8 standard deviation (SD) μmol/L, p = ≤ 0.001; value = 295.33 ± 55.77 SD μmol/L, p = 0.001; value = 90.06 (2.8) interquartile ranges (IQR), p = 0.033). Disulfide/native thiol*100 and disulfide/total thiol*100 values were significantly higher in the group with OS (respectively; value = 5.5 (1.7) IQR, p = 0.033; value = 4.97 (1.4) IQR, p = 0.034).
conclusionIn our study, the role of oxidative stress in OS was demonstrated by using TDH as an oxidative stress parameter.
