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

BACKGROUND &

aimsSLC11A2 (DMT1) and SLC40A1 (ferroportin) are essential for dietary iron absorption, but their role in manganese transport is debated. SLC30A10 deficiency causes severe manganese excess due to loss of gastrointestinal manganese excretion. Patients are treated with chelators but also respond to oral iron, suggesting that iron can outcompete manganese for absorption in this disease. Here, we determine if divalent metal transport 1 (Dmt1) and ferroportin can transport manganese using Slc30a10-deficient mice as a model.

methodsManganese absorption and levels and other disease parameters were assessed in Slc30a10

resultsManganese absorption was increased in Slc30a10-deficient mice despite manganese excess. Intestinal Dmt1 and ferroportin deficiency attenuated manganese absorption and excess in Slc30a10-deficient mice. Intestinal Slc30a10 deficiency increased manganese absorption and levels in the hemochromatosis mouse model.

conclusionsAberrant absorption contributes prominently to SLC30A10 deficiency, a disease previously attributed to impaired excretion, and is dependent upon intestinal Dmt1 and ferroportin and exacerbated by loss of intestinal Slc30a10. This work expands our understanding of overlaps between manganese and iron transport and the mechanisms by which the body regulates absorption of 2 nutrients that can share transport pathways. We propose that a reconsideration of the role of Dmt1 and ferroportin in manganese homeostasis is warranted.
