Comparison of Superoxide Dismutase Activity at the Cell, Organ, and Whole-Body Levels.
Review in Cell biochemistry and biophysics, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled 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.
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
Superoxide dismutase (SOD) can be considered an antitoxic metalloenzyme that facilitates the production of oxygen and hydrogen peroxide from superoxide anions. Four classes have been identified depending on selective binding of metals, namely Cu,Zn-SOD, Fe-SOD, Mn-SOD, and Ni-SOD. The established isoforms are SOD1, SOD2, and SOD3 in various cells and tissues of eukaryotes. The relatively newer type Ni-SOD binds nickel and is observed in bacteria, including the genus Streptomyces. The Fe-SOD and Mn-SOD are also present in bacteria. Cu,Zn superoxide dismutase (SOD1) activity correlates with various pathophysiological states of organs. SOD2 binds manganese (Mn) and is located in the mitochondria. The SOD3, similar to the SOD1, binds copper and zinc, which are also expressed in the brain. The assay relies on several methods, including the enzyme activities, expression, field potential, and patch-clamp electrophysiology. The effects of SOD activity are emphasized at organ and whole-body levels depending on animal models. The antioxidant properties and behavior of SOD are compared based on responses among females and males to diet and toxic substances. However, in humans with amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS), the mean SOD activity in both erythrocytes and muscles was comparable to controls. The detailed comparisons between the catalase and SOD activities are one of the aspects of this review. Also, modulation of excitability and synaptic plasticity in neurons by SOD is highlighted.
