Loss of mitochondrial enzyme GPT2 leads to reprogramming of synaptic glutamate metabolism.
Article in bioRxiv : the preprint server for biology, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
Recessive loss-of-function mutations in the mitochondrial enzyme Glutamate Pyruvate Transaminase 2 (GPT2) cause intellectual disability in children. Given this cognitive disorder, and because glutamate metabolism is tightly regulated to sustain excitatory neurotransmission, here we investigate the role of GPT2 in synaptic function. GPT2 catalyzes a reversible reaction interconverting glutamate and pyruvate with alanine and alpha-ketoglutarate, a TCA cycle intermediate; thereby, GPT2 may play an important role in linking mitochondrial tricarboxylic acid (TCA) cycle with synaptic transmission. In mouse brain, we find that GPT2 is enriched in mitochondria of synaptosomes (isolated synaptic terminals). Loss of Gpt2 in mouse appears to lead to reprogramming of glutamate and glutamine metabolism, and to decreased glutamatergic synaptic transmission.
