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

Lactate, as a metabolic product or energy substrate, participates in various neurological processes within the physiological and pathological frameworks of the central nervous system (CNS). The groundbreaking application of multi-omics integration technologies has unveiled a novel role for lactate: lactylation, a unique post-translational modification (PTM) that covalently attaches lactate groups to lysine residues on proteins. This process precisely regulates protein function and gene expression, profoundly influencing the progression of various diseases. The lactylation process is meticulously regulated by a variety of key enzymes and metabolic pathways, forming a dynamic and intricate modification network. In this review, we summarize the key enzymes involved in lactylation, specifically "Writers," "Erasers," and "Readers." Furthermore, we systematically categorize lactylation observed in various cell types within the CNS and investigate its multifaceted roles in pathological processes, including neurodegenerative diseases, brain tumors, and brain injuries. By consolidating the latest research findings in this field, our review aims to highlight the significance of these discoveries for future research and explore their potential for translational applications.
